I'm 21M, graduating this spring semester (June), from USA. I'm in a very fortunate position to have a remote CS job that allows me to work from abroad. I have been with this startup company since my 2nd year of college (now 4th year) and I make enough to cover my living expenses. This company however is looking to exit at the end of the year which makes me worry about job stability.I recently been thinking about traveling through Asia after I graduate starting June till the end of December 2026 for 6 months, and see all the places and things I want, but what I been anxious about is if I should focus on finding a new, higher paying CS job after graduation and the idea of losing my current apartment and not having a homebase to go to when I come back scares me a bit. While abroad, I can still apply for jobs and do the best I can to secure myself a home base when coming back, but it feels a little more stressful and going into the unknown.Maybe that peace of mind is what I need even if it eat my money a little bit? What would you do in my shoes?
>>2860268I'd just travel lol. You'll figure out how to be a wagecuck later. You're 21 only once.
>have at least 2 years exp for a resume>can take time offDo it, just build your linkedin with the company and make sure to get some letter of recommendation from any good friends you have at your job. You're basically ahead of the game exiting college with a degree and exp, a year off will look like nothing to employers since they probably figured you took a gap year like most do
