Questions on form AN for naturalisation

Hi,
I’m applying for British citizenship online and I have a couple of questions. I’d be grateful if someone could give me some advice please.

I have ILR and am married to a British citizen

1) as I am married to a British citizen, as far as I can tell, I do not have to intend to remain in the uk when I apply. Is this right? And if that is the case, when they ask that question am I ok to state ‘no’ and detail where we intend to live?
2) when they ask about my trips abroad in the last 3 years, it only allows me to select one country, however some trips I visited multiple countries, and my point of departure was different to point of entry.. how do I answer these questions? I’m assuming it’s the dates that are important rather than the destinations, so as to not exceed the amount of time allowed out of the country

1) Good read:

2) Choose final destination. List transit country in the reason section. UK entry/exit dates matter only.

This question is just a formality, they can’t stop from living anywhere you like after becoming a citizen. They just want to confirm your allegiance. So say yes.

You only need to state the country of visit and not your transit points.
