I would assume most people have been away for holidays and some for business. I would suspect from your use of the word "really" that trips like that are not being included in definition of being away from home.

In my case the answer is a big yes, I have lived in the South East, North East, London, South Coast, Yorkshire and the Midlands.

I've been abroad a lot, but I don't really travel around in the UK that often, bar driving to places to catch flights or whatever or visiting family further north.
