@Stefani *******

ok well someone said before go on a 90 and convert to Retiree. Don't go on tourist visa. So many mixed messages. I'll just deal with embassy here. Thanks for the help

@Brandon ***********

what's the 90 day one ? Thought I could convert that ?

@Karl *******

hey I appreciate that. If you happen to have his contact information I'd appreciate that.

@Brandon ***********

haven't gone that far in this process yet. Once I find a school I'll ask. I'll go over on the non O visa and have some time to establish residency first and move forward from there. I'll convert to Retiree or a student visa for thai language or muay thai depending on what's more cost effective and what makes the most sense for me. I've only spent a total of 45 days in thailand on two visits and have really only explored Bangkok, Pattaya and jomtien and a couple islands off of pattaya. I definitely want to see some other areas . I also went to Laos and enjoyed it there as well .

I haven't ruled out a relocation to there either.

@Brandon ***********

that's what I have read as well. Thank you. I'm 52 so just wanted to see if it was an option as I plan on taking a Thai language class anyways.
