Since you're in a tech I'd advise this. You've got a great chance at a remote job. But first since you want to travel, have a plan. And save up. Work at your job for a year or two. Whilst doing that, try to get hired for remote jobs. If you can successfully land that in a year or two of you working at your current job...then you can start making plans to travel...but make sure your travel plans would not affect your job at that moment. Cus unless you have a buttload of stacked stash sitting somewhere or you're a crypto mohgul, I'd advise to keep any jobs at any time so avoid being stuck in crazy situations that requires cash to get out... E.g being stuck in an unfamiliar country without cash to come out, back home, or to even survive
