Dear Pat,
I sympathize with your desire to work while travelling.
Bangkok, Thailand, has a lot of work because of the demand
for English teaching. Start out in the Khao San Road area
and talk to the tourists there, many of whom teach English
at the many language institutes to make a living.
Just get a non-immigrant Type "O" visa for 6 to 9 months,
depending on the country you apply from, and state the
reason for your application to study Thai and Buddhism.
I don't have current information on the best places to stay
for fresh arrivals, but lots of information should be
available in the Khao San Road area from tourists
themselves. Do not go by local information, as there are
hucksters mixed in with the locals there and they prey on
tourists, of course.
That's how I started out some 15 years ago, and while I have
little contact with tourists in Thailand these days (I am a
computer consultant and travel consultant for travel in
Sulawesi, Indonesia), I hope young travellers can enjoy some
of the fun I had when I first came here.
Please feel free to email me for further information. I will
be in Bangkok through June.
Kind regards,
Rich
