You don't have to cross the world to enjoy a bike tour. 2 weeks is the longest I've done, and it's fun enough. Admittedly I get 4 weeks vacation, so this isn't the only break I get all year, but still. Pick one destination and go explore by bike. Maybe you'll take it easy, ride 300km over 5 days, and relax for the rest. Or push hard every day and cover 2000km or more. Depends on what you like (I prefer the short end, myself).
Either way, it's a break from every day life, a chance to spend some time on your bike and see an interesting part of the world. Enjoy it.

If you're unhappy with your work-life balance, emigrating to a country that places greater value on leisure time can be an effective solution. It's a pretty big decision, though.
