I really want to go and travel the world , but I'm 28 years

1. Do you actually have a career? It sounds like you have a job. You can quit jobs.

2. Plan your route carefully and take advantage of free services like couch surfing, etc.
Find some efficient portable base nutrition to always have on you. You have more time than money, so use your time.

It's a decent stable paying job that has federal benefits. I meant career suicide in that if I travel for a year, I'm not going to be able to get the decent career job I have now again.

So far as the money thing goes you can always work for periods of the travel and use the base country as a way to explore the surrounding areas. Travelling for a year straight is a bit shit anyway, you'd be surprised how samey it gets after the third or fourth month. Having that element of stability can be great and actually lets you experience a country properly too and build links there.

Only you can tell yourself whether you can get a job when you get back. I teach Maths which is in pretty high demand so it wasn't an issue for me but you know your situation best.

I'm not an educated man though. Is it easy getting more common jobs in other countries like dish washer or janitor. I wouldn't mind staying extendedly in some european countries working a min wage job.

Europe would be hard since work visas are a pain, I know of some things you could do in the UK on a youth mobility visa which would pay food and board and a stipend of around $60 a week but that only lasts until you're 30 which is obviously coming up soon.

Getting jobs in the far east teaching English however is pretty easy, whatever your education level. Korea has decent paying jobs all over the place if you want a first world country, the rest of southeast asia if you dont, they can be dodgy if you get unlucky but a great way to save if you don't

Could you get a licence for making a doctorate? it would be 4 years. If you doc is in Europe, you could know the continent both in holidays and weekends.

> licence for making a doctorate
there is no such thing. But in general it is not advisable to start a PhD unless you are actually considering being a researcher/ academic.

To answer OP: ask yourself - if you start looking tomorrow, will you be able to find a job that is better than what you have now? If yes, you can take a year break and find that job when you come back. Employers now consider these "sabbatical years" rather a cool thing to have done, a sign of confidence and maturity - not a carreer killer at all.

If not, that is, if your current job is the best you can get now, then work on your carreer until the answer to the above becomes positive.

Not OP, but I thought you needed either TEFL or a degree if you wanted to teach English?

From my understanding, a standard prerequisite to start down the TEFL path is to have some form of Bachelor's degree from an accredited school. Although from what I've read it's implied there is some leeway in academic qualification, but it would be highly unorthodox to get hired by a foreign firm win nothing on your resume.
