--Where is Tom?
--He’s gone to London.
--Have you ever been to London?
--Yes, I have. (I’ve been to London.)
(by me)
In this context, ‘I’ve been to London’ means I’ve come back from London. I’m not in London now. I wonder if this sentence always means so. If I’m still in London, could I say the sentence below?
This is the first time I've been to London.
