Depending on the vibe coming from who is asking, I tend to answer somewhat similar to some of you above. Often trying to put a bit of humor and perhaps a Jamaican reference. Maybe "axe mi no questions..." (frequently I'll get the expected "I'll tell you no lies" response).
For "Have you been here before?", maybe "I was here same time last year". I neither want anyone to know how many trips I've had, nor think it is my 1st time.
Last trip it was "Mi just touched down inna di airport ,mmmh hmmm". Referencing a popular song (remixed with JA musician) seemed to accomplish #1) been here before #2) knows some JA culture and #3) maybe has a sense of humor.
