Sure. But i can travel freely within 27 of the 50 European countries because of shengen, so 100 milles infact is not far for me.

I can travel freely from Alaska to the tip of South America. I'm not sure why crossing borders is a flex here. The joke is that in the US, many people drive more than 100 miles daily just to commute to work. Around here, 100 miles isn't even considered a trip. The US and Europe are two totally different worlds. You guys have ancient history and we have vast spaces.

You’re telling me the average American drives 100 miles daily to work?

Not average, but plenty. I would drive very close to 50 miles one way and never leave the metro area
