What does this mean? "Spidey senses"?  Thx!

From the cartoon spiderman...or well, the one I watched with my brother lol, his 'spidey senses' which basically just means intuition that something stupid is coming his way LOL

Having lived in four countries, I can tell you there's the good and the bad, with lots of surprises in both directions. And it's very different than visiting on vacation, when one doesn't have to deal with the realities of daily life (not to mention the maze of bureaucracies) - and in a foreign language to boot.

I understand those realities. There is a Twitch live streamer that I have been in his community for the last 6+ years that has been streaming his daily life living in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and travels to other places like Thailand and Singapore throughout all that time. He is now teaching kids English in one of the schools in Vietnam. We get to see him teaching live on stream, and when he isn't doing that he is doing things at home(sometimes gaming), out exploring the city or the countryside, local natural attractions, local nightlife, eating at restaurants, meeting and talking with locals, etc. We see the things he has to go through just to be able to move around, live, and work in all these countries with work or study visas, and all the other unpleasant bureaucracies and process. But it's worth it.

If i ever got the chance to utilize the Thailand 60 day visa free stay, I would do it to see what it's like beforehand and weigh any decisions from there. I don't mean  to speak about Thailand as some magical place and there's no unpleasant realities or hurdles that I would face. If I ever moved to another country, Thailand would be one of the very few places that I'd go through the difficulties and hurdles that might come with it.

As for learning another language, I have no issues with that. I originally wanted to go to a Taiwan university to learn Mandarin and even thought about maybe learning Thai instead at a Thai university. I am good with languages and won/placed in state language competitions in secondary school. Thai is one of the more difficult languages getting a 4/5 ranking in difficulty for westerners to learn, but I think that's for the average person. In addition, while English is not spoken by everyone in Thailand, it is a commonly used language in the country and it is possible to communicate with locals. I'd be fine.

I dont think I've ever watched anything from Taiwan before? I need to shower first, then get my tea and see if I'm as interested as everyone else LOL

Taiwan BLs (collectively speaking) are more quality than quantity.

I agree the stories are so good and deep. The Unknown is a masterpiece.
