Proving that you are not working.
Not sure where to put this, but thought I would share the experience anyway.
My wife and I have on 2 occassions quite our jobs and traveled for more than 12 months. One thing we found hard when we got back and looking for work was to have proof to show we were actually travelling. We both work in financial industry in London and the screening processes for most big firms is very strict. We had to have proof for every 6 week gaps in our Cv that we were travelling. Luckily we could do most of this with passport stamps, but we had times where we were in a place for longer than that. For those, we had proof via credit card statements.
So, this is really just bit of info to keep in mind if you intend to work again after a long period of travelling. Try and have some sort of record somewhere to have proof where you were and what you were doing.
