Person I’m dating is planning a 2 month vacation

We have been dating for almost two months now. It’s been going well. We have had some ups and downs, mostly because mentally he isn’t always in the right headspace and then he can disappear a couple of days.

The last few weeks have been really good. He messages me more frequently, asks me almost daily to meet up, speaks about future plans.

Now he has mentioned needing a vacation but because it was so soon I didn’t want to concretely plan something for the summer until we make it official. Now he suddenly mentioned planning a vacation with a coworker for 2 months. He did ask me how I feel about it, and I told him I am not the person to deny him doing fun things but that I would find it a bit difficult not seeing him so long. His birthday is during that period, I start work the second month so technically the first month he is gone is my last month of vacation. He said he understands but that he’s young now and now is the time to do those vacations bc it’s a very physically active vacation.

I’m not sure how I feel about it. I don’t want to be the reason he doesn’t make this trip, but I don’t know how to feel about not seeing and probably not hearing him for two months. It’s a nature vacation so he won’t always have a full battery so I probably won’t hear him daily.

Most of my friends all work so it would also mean I won’t have anyone to go on vacation with this summer because my friends take leave for vacations with their partners and not friends.
