Could ask for a three month leave from current job. To travel the world or what not.

Even in EU it's a tough sell. Your current employer has to agree to it. Why should they, since you're leaving? It only complicates counting employees.

Better to have an employee that knows the grass is not greener on the other side, thus he/she has been there. A good employer will let you take a leave, its even a right in some EU states.

Doesn't mean you can go and work for potentially a competitor
