Good idea. You can travel to many places and culture. You will find the right place even if it takes you more time and frustration but end of the day it will only be worth it if you make the decision. Good luck

What type of visa should I apply for to live permanently in Thailand at age 76?

Robert *******

I use Agoda website. You can get some good prices in your area. Flight in the country are cheaper and you can get to different parts of the country. Start wirh a tourist visa and you can then find a bank and then guidance. You can fly to Vietnam for a day or Bali come back.
