Since you are only 19, I definitely agree you should enjoy your youth, definitely! So, why not find a "gift" you have such as painting, or sculpture, and travel the world using that talent along the way to fund your travels? Sell your work along the way to local gift shops or stores. If you can play guitar, you can certainly make some nice pocket change along the way playing for crowds or even a night or two at a local dive that would otherwise have no "live" entertainment :)
Get out, travel, explore! But, PLEASE be careful to, it's a big world, and should be seen, but there are those out there that want to cause you harm or just take your money! :(

First of all, don't take the approach that you must choose between career and fun. Think of the things that you love doing and find a career that allows you to do that. If you don't, then the time you spend there will be long and depressing.
A work life balance is very important as well. Make sure you find something that does not take away more personal time that you would like.

Hard Work pays off in the future. But laziness pays off now.
Im 23, and just recently foung myself a career. When Looking back at everyone I went to school with, I am one of the only people I know whom have actually started a respectful career and making money. I party and have fun every weekend with my mates, but come week days, i wear a suit and tie to work.
You can have your cake and eat it to. You just need to find a happy medium.

it is possible to have both,kept your business life separated from your personal life,don't bring the job home with you unless you have no choice. try to keep your weekend free for the thing you love to do.always make sure that you make time for yourself so you don't get stress out.learn to forus on what's important get that type of work out the way first an then slowly finish the rest staying a little late at that office if you have to in order to ensure your free weekends

I think it would be a good idea to do all the travelling and leisure related things before you start a career.
Once that starts its hard to get time off to do all of those things.
Good luck
