thank you so much for your response yes i am traveling alone and the only visa i think i can get is a non working one so i think it is a double entry visa of three month each time, correct me if i am wrong.
I am a artis so if a job opportunity should blossom i would be able to change the visa.聽
Ideally i would like to have a place in a nice scenic area with some trees and greener with an outside space, is that to much to ask for you think.
thanks again
