I have a question. I have a good NW. I work someplace with "unlimited PTO" and I really need a 2yr vacation/sabbatical. 2yrs is within the limits of "unlimited" right? My plan? I'm thinking I want to spend a couple months getting a suntan on the beaches of Panama and Costa Rica. Then I want to improve my German by living in Munich for about a year. Then maybe move to Spain to write my memoirs, watch the running of the bulls and smoke good cigars.

Wow it seems like you work for a great company. It would be a dream of mine to have unlimited PTO. I would be traveling around the world just like you. All of your plans sounds great to me when it comes to trying to find what happens next.

Sounds like an amazing plan. Sadly, I doubt very much your supervisor will agree, and if he does, his supervisor definitely won't. Some places do allow sabbaticals, but almost certainly without pay.

Have you thought about remote work? You would still have to "show up", but you could do it from the beaches of Costa Rica, or the beer halls of Munich.
