I was fortunate to have been able to be able to travel Europe as part of University and never regretted it and it was also a boon to get that itch scratched and out of the way. I have other itches to scratch now before they become old-age regrets.

The way I see it though, you have 4 weeks vacation. Ask for another 4 weeks of unpaid leave or ask your company for an official sabbatical. If they really value you, I think you might stand a good chance at getting that time off to see the world. You can do a hell of a lot in only 1-2 months if you find the right opportunity/program/itinerary.
