I don't regret any of the time I took off from lawyering, but you've got to have a home to come back to eventually, and you've got to make your life at home as good as it can be. Otherwise you'll just be looking for another escape in a couple of years.
That said, there's a big wide wonderful world out there that you should get to know better while you can. I hope you enjoy it!

Why? Home is not a fixed and unchanging place. I thought along the lines of the above and came 'home' but it was a mistake as I absolutely hated living in Calgary. I realized after three horrible years that 'home' is Seoul and moved back and couldn't be happier.
The time abroad could be a welcome break from your life or the start of a new one.
