Can I travel around Europe for 6 months?

Can I Stay in Europe for 6 Months? No, if your Schengen visa is valid for a duration of 90 days, you cannot stay in Europe for 6 months. You can stay up to 90 days within a 180-day period, which people consider a “six-month” period, but your visa is still valid for only 90 days.

This means that you can stay for a few days, then leave the Schengen area and enter again, as long as you don't overstay 90 days within a 180-day period.
