Travelling within my home country (France) on a 5 day Global pass

Hello,

Thank-you in advance for taking the trouble to read this. We will be taking a trip within Europe and I understand about being allowed two days in the home country, one to leave and one to return.  There is no problem for the day when we leave as we will be exiting France on day 1.  However on our return the plan is to stop overnight in Zurich, then travel to Paris where we would like to overnight again before leaving from Paris to our French home town.  Part of the Zurich to Paris leg will of course be in France.  Does this mean that the penultimate day and the leg from Paris to home will count as two travel days on the Pass?  Or as it is solely in the direction of our return would it be allowed as just one day (I am hoping so!).  Otherwise we will have to do the whole bit from Zurich to Paris in a single day. Thank you for any help that you can give me 😀

If you stay overnight in Paris, then you would indeed need 2 in/outbound days for the return journey, since it will be on 2 separate dates.
