Hello!

Right now I'm at one provincial monastery in Thailand. I'm visiting it since 2006 for short retreats up to 30 days. Recently I've asked the abbot if I can stay for a long unlimited period. He agreed. But the secretary has no experience at all with preparing documents for the religious visa. 

Could someone share with me actual information on this matter? Or refer to someone else? I'm afraid when the secretary will find out everything my tourist visa will expire.

My background: I've studied World religions with specialization on Buddhism and on Psychology of Religion in 2003-2008 at Leiden University in The Netherlands. Also here I've studied Thai language. In 2006 I've studied 'Buddhism in SEA' at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok. 

With metta,

Marina
