@TryingtoLava That's fine if you were having fun

@TryingtoLava I’ve never spent more than a day in London.
That’s quite enough!

Walk around a city or any other interesting place. Even if it's just 2-3 hours. I don't count gas stations, airports or bus/train stations.

@CrazyMusicLover I'm replanning my world tour of gas stations

24-48 hours or it's a "I passed through".

Overnight.

Lugwho · 56-60, M

@DunningKruger This seems reasonable

Carazaa · F

Feet in the airport doesn't do it 😆

Lugwho · 56-60, M

@Carazaa No I don't think it does. What about driving through a country without stopping?

Carazaa · F

@Lugwho Yes that counts. Even going outside of the airport to a town for one day can count as a visit, even not going out of the car or bus, yep.

Lugwho · 56-60, M

@Carazaa I drove through Slovakia and feel I saw the country.

I spent a couple of hours in a transit loung at Bangkok sirport, but would never say I've been to Thailand.

Feet on the ground outside a transit station.

Lugwho · 56-60, M

@Starcrossed I think this is a minimum

bookerdana · M

A week to ten days

Lugwho · 56-60, M

@bookerdana All in one visit, or woyld several 2-3 day visits count?

Donotfolowme · 51-55, F

Flying over also counts technically
Imagine and compare it with sleeping in your bed room vs flying over the ocean n crossing that country. Thank you! You are welcome.

Lugwho · 56-60, M

@Donotfolowme I never thought of flying over. I'll add it to the options.

Donotfolowme · 51-55, F

@Lugwho I am amazing, as they say 🤷

Lugwho · 56-60, M

@Donotfolowme They are right
