That's definitely something I've been considering. That's why I was wondering if I get denied entry because I may keep some of my belongings in Thailand and would like to retrieve them if possible. If going away for a month or so at a time works, then that would be perfect. I don't necessarily need to stay the whole time in Thailand it is just cheaper to have a base and I love exploring. This post isn't to learn how to stay in Thailand the longest I genuinely want to travel, in the cheapest and most stress free way. Appreciate the info from your personal experience. Enjoy your day!
