My expat journey




Vietnam

Arizona, USA
I've only ben here a short time and most of it has been dealing with a problem ar my house so I can not really give a fair evaluation of the area. I was born in Brooklyn NY grew up in Phila. PA and lived in 15 or more states.

It is warm in the winter with lots of things to do/
This is in the Desert, in the summer it gets to be 120 to 130 degrees F or 49 to 54 degrees Celsius

Granada, Nicaragua
I'm just trying to find out about staying in Vietnam or other countries longer than a 30 day passport visit. How does one get immigration documents or status for a long term stay lets say 6 months to a year?
Lived in Nicaragua for 9 months and visited Ecuador for one month two different times.
Trying to find somewhere I can relax, be at peace and feel comfortable to retire on a limited budget.
Came up with the idea for the Nicaraguan Canal, couldn't find any backers or supporters so now someone else is building it.
The people were very friendly, the house I rented was really great an old colonial with lots of upgrades but kept to the original design.
Had to leave every 30 to 60 days then return, could not get permanent status. Also did not like the MOSQUITOES or the dust
