actually, he has several clues and he has a year to research more. Your comment provided no help whatsoever, but maybe it made you feel superior. Perhaps seek such validation elsewhere in your life.
I’d STRONGLY suggest you search this group for information on three things:
1) retirement visas (that’s what it sounds like you’re seeking)
2). Driver’s licenses
3). ***bank accounts***
Your head will spin but you’ll have soooo much information. Amongst what you’ll find is confirmation of what Brandon and Stuart told you. You’ll see folks (maybe even me 🙂 ) desperately trying to open bank accounts to no avail on a tourist visa. Opening one on a long-term visa is soooo much easier. You can then focus on the license and the extension.
Read up. There’s so much info available from very helpful people.
and some people don’t find those beaches lonely at all. Still others are looking for more than beaches. 🤣🤣🤣. The OP said she was looking at Bangkok. What part of that post made you think, “This woman is craving beaches”? 🤣🤣🤣 There’s a big world out there that doesn’t involve beaches and even has the conveniences you mentioned, if that’s what one needs. I started out regularly going to Lotus. Now, I rarely do.
I did similarly when I came in (I did not yet have my long-term visa though). I showed them where I wanted them to stamp. They paused for a moment then happily assisted.
it reminds me of Florida, honestly…a place to go to wait to die. I’m told there’s more to HH than what I saw. I’m hoping that’s true and will visit again without making a firm decision. However, I just don’t understand blankly saying one should choose there while knowing nothing about the individual’s needs.
