Explaining career gap after long career break, dilemma.

Hi redditers, 3 years ago i decided to take a career break traveling the whole world. It lasted for 2 years.

Since i returned home i made living trading stock online and didn't returned to office life.

​

Im actively looking for job now and have found that the gap really haunts me with few chances of interview.

Surely saying sitting at home for 1+ year is not a good choice. I know i screw it and made a bad decision.

​

One of my oversea friend agreed i can make up a position in his company to cut the gap bit shorter, and i don't feel comfortable doing it, afraid of being caught. Or should i just lengthen my travel and say i was back recently?

​

Thank you for your input. :)
