TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is currently on a two-month tourist visa and is seeking advice on how to obtain a long-term visa to stay in Chiang Mai. Comments suggest exploring options based on age and marital status, with recommendations for a multiple entry tourist visa (METV) or an education visa, as well as a link to the Thai Elite Visa for extended stays.

are you over 50, are you married to a thai, do you legally work here? If not I'd say you could get a 6 month METV from a thai consulate in your country, OR you can look into an education visa for studying.
