Is it reasonable to ask for three weeks before joining a new company? I was thinking a two week notice and a week vacation to take a breath. What do you think ?

Absolutely, just tell the new company you have a month notice period and then take your time off.

Absolutely, it's reasonable! I've done it between my three different companies I've been at. It's nice to have that "extra vacation" time between to decompress from one gig to the next.
