I guess the first time I ever did it was when I was backpacking through Europe in 1968, I would stop for a week maybe before moving on, sometimes waiting for a visa or a ferry, but in Bucharest Romania, I met a girl, and stayed for two months, until my visa expired.
What is the longest amount of time you have stayed uninterrupted in a city that you didn't live in for purely tourism? Please don't count trips for business, education, or staying with a relative for an extended period.
I wouldn't count a stay where you left the city for a day trip to an attraction in the same region--for example if you visited San Francisco for a week but spent a day in Napa and then returned to San Francisco that evening, that still counts as a continuous stay in San Francisco as you returned the same day.
Five months in Tokyo. Though I did have to leave briefly for immigrations reasons. So actually 3 months + 2 months.
Three months in Cape Coral Florida on a home exchange. They got our home in Mesa AZ on the desert while we got their home on the canal.

I guess my honeymoon, at the Grand Hyatt, St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands, nine days. Earlier I posted that it was sleepaway camp but that really doesn't count.
