Do it while you can. You never know what might come up as the years go by. You may have a significant other who you don't want to leave behind, or other obligations.

I know the pro of doing it later would be that I’ll have a higher salary to enjoy my time. But I also have heard doing it in your earlier 20s will be much more fun 😒

Do it now! I have done it three different times in different locations and had some great experiences (age 28). Soak it all up while you can

Depends on location and culture. In Dubai for example (where I lived) people club into their 50s. Not a big different in my opinion

what is apac?

Thank you, was unfamiliar with the acronym
