How untraveled are you? GeoGuessr

You're dropped in 5 different random locations in the world via Google Street View and have to guess where you are. The closer you are, the more points you get.

Google search is fair game, but keep in mind that you have a 1 minute time limit.

I did terrible with a score of 7,326 with the link below. How did everyone else do?

I got around 8500 but I got a zero on the last one because my phone rang and time ran out. I didn't know it was timed and also didn't know you could zoom lol.

7523 for being dropped in 5 different fields. Randomization is a tricky thing.

It's not random for each user, the drop points are the same for each of us.
