In our case both me and my husband we just stopped working. We will have to find new works once we are back from our adventure.


I know many others that have used the economy dowtime in the world to take a long leave of absence and their employers were more than happy to give it (for the employer it saves a lot of costs - he does not to reduce workforce and when the economy will pick up again, he wont have costs of re-hiring...).

At the end of the day - its a matter of priorities in life. If you have traveling high up, I am sure you will find the way to travel, long or short - it may involve some risks (but risk with traveling vs. stability and no traveling is the type of priority I refer to).

I've been thinking of that too, stopped working, and then hunt for job once I am back. But the thought of jobless for months is a nightmare. All I need is 2 weeks. Reply to this
