We use 'for' with a period of time (2 hours, three years, six months).
• I've been to Paris (in my life, but now I'm in London, where I live).
• She has been to school today (but now she's back at home).
• They have never been to California.
We use 'gone' (often when we are talking about an action with a result in the present) to
mean that the person went to the place and is at the place now.

happening now OR for finished actions which have a connection to the present.
3. We CAN'T use the present perfect with a finished time word:
