I have officially booked my travel for Thailand. I will be leaving on August 30th. The language school I will attend starts in mid-September so I will have 2 weeks to settle in and get acclimated before the start of classes.
There is only one thing that still needs to be addressed before I can leave, my visa. There are a number of different types of visas for various lengths of time, but I want to get a non-immigrant one year multiple entry visa. The granting of these visas is totally at the discretion of the consulate staff. I will be sending the paperwork (along with my passport) to the consulate in Atlanta next week. Please pray that the staff there would grant me this 1 year visa and that all the paperwork will get to Atlanta and back safely.
Thank you!
