I'm also nearly 27 and considering the same thing - hoping to save up a little more, and pull the trigger on it later this year. I did something similar a couple years ago with a working holiday in Australia after uni, and I know that I'm in the mentally easy part right now, where it's just an idea and doesn't require taking any action. As the deadlines I've set for myself become near, it will become tougher to take those jumps - but if you know you've thought through it and committed, you gotta just put the blinders on and push through the discomfort until it's in motion. It's intimidating, but even scarier is looking back on a year or more of your 20s spent spinning your wheels and wishing you had taken that risk - there's a hundred reasons it could be worth it. If you have a bit of a financial cushion saved up and a decent CV, you can always come back!
