You are likely to take this trip at some point in your life. Now middle of your life or at retierment. The only questions about it is. What is it you want to have left behind to look back to? How much loot do you want to have in your pocket while you travel? And what age do you want the ladies you tangle with on this trip to be

don't give him any ideas - next thing you know he is on some damn island, wearing a platypus-cod-piece, running a revolution... just because he is the one with the best and highest qualifications of the entire population to run a damn revolution... to free some penguins or something...
follow your fleeting... get off my desk! we talked - you know my take on this... besides - you could just step off the plane in some overseas shithole, look over your shoulder and feverishly whisper "thereisnoplacelikehomethreetimes!" and run back to civilization. Look... crapping into a bucket stops being challenging after you try it sober and with a flashlight. Same with seeing the world gig. Some never get tired, others yawn and go back to the swamp to be a friendly hippo. For some there is "wow-look-falling-tower", for others it's "remove that Galileo guy, straighten up the tower and fix up the signs, liven place up with some graffiti that reads Galileo's mom likes 'em crooked! and introduce these italian barbarians to a new and novel concept of shutting the fuck up!" But... I digress... do I need to lend you a quarter? so you could flip it?
Oh and read my reply to D in case if you get any funny ideas.
Obviously, none of us can make the decision for you. But the plus is, it looks like people will support you either way :P
I don't think there is a 'right answer' here. And I think you're going to drive yourself crazy trying to find it. I know what -I- think you should do, but that's not really helpful, considering I'm not you, nor am I living your life with all it's intracesies.
My suggestion is to somewhat secure your position at work and go.... Grow as a person and come back and continue the waddle of work into uncertainty. If you can go, GO. If you do not you'll miss out and as you said it will change. Do it on your terms but line it up so you can comfortably come back to a job. A crib will happen too, and as stated by someone above, I'll put you up...just go do it.

Regardless, we should go get a drink :)
