Oh, at first didn't get that "x" was substitute for country. In a large country like US, and maybe even in smaller areas, the answer had better be "Yes, this is my tenth visit to <x=town name, or even suburbia area> in the last 4 months. But you beeing a taxi driver, must be familiar with this adress/area?"
