Check immigration rules
Tourist entry does not necessarily permit months of residence, employment or other activities. Verify visa, residence and permitted-activity conditions with the relevant government before paying nonrefundable costs.
Consider everyday living
Think about internet reliability, healthcare access, transport, banking, insurance and local support. Build a realistic monthly budget with contingency funds.
Stay flexible
A layered plan with a reliable base and optional regional excursions can make a longer visit more enjoyable and easier to adjust.
