With a global pass, when taking an inbound/outbound trip can I take more than one train? Meaning, do they count as travel DAYS where you can travel within your country of residence ilimitadly or rather a single trip where you HAVE to get out of your country?

You can take as many trains as you like on any travel day.

If it’s an inbound / outbound day, that includes as many trains as you like in your own country, but they must be in connection with an international journey.

According to the terms and conditions:

An Interrail Global Pass may only be used for two specific journeys in the country of
residence of the traveller (provided this country is an Interrail participating country).
These two journeys are referred to as the outbound and inbound journey.
• The outbound journey can be used to travel from any location in the country of
residence to the border or an airport or port.
• The inbound journey can be used to travel from the border or an airport or port
back to any location in the country of residence.

 

Strictly speaking, you can’t spend the day travelling around in your country of residence if you’re not also leaving (or arriving in) the country.
