Thailand DTV Visa Journey - From Bangkok to Hanoi & Back

In this long-form cinematic travel vlog, I share the complete journey of leaving Thailand, facing uncertainty, and waiting for a decision that would determine my future abroad. After months of preparation — fixing financial requirements in Norway, gathering documents, and waiting for the correct bank statements — it was finally time to leave Bangkok and apply for the Thailand DTV visa in Hanoi.

I arrived in Vietnam carrying everything emotionally. My life, plans, and future in Thailand were suddenly out of my control. While waiting for approval, I tried to live in the moment — exploring Hanoi’s Old Quarter, eating Vietnamese street food, training at local gyms, and even finding an underground techno club that kept me dancing into Sunday morning.

Then, on a red day holiday, something unexpected happened. The visa was approved earlier than expected. Plans changed instantly. I cancelled my trip to Hoi An and booked a last-minute flight back to Bangkok.

This video isn’t just about a visa run — it’s about expat life, starting over, trusting the process, and what it feels like when uncertainty finally turns into relief.

If you enjoy cinematic travel vlogs, slow storytelling, and real-life experiences abroad, this one is for you.
