EXACTLY!! That's one of the reasons I quit my job and headed off on a 3 month tour.
I had been sitting there regretting not travelling when I was younger, the opportunity came up, I thought about it briefly ... and I was off! I figured I had two options: I could continue to regret and possibly end up never touring for whatever reason, or I could seize the day and go for it before it was too late. I've no regrets about my decision.
