Does anyone know if this would be a problem? 
I quit my job over a year ago and saved up enough money to be able to travel to many countries. I’m worried when they ask me during the interview how many/what countries I’ve been to the last 5 years. Is it bad that I’ve been traveling a lot? Has anyone had any similar experience? 

Unfortunately yes, that’s not a good thing to have extensive travel history.
They will most definitely ask you about the countries you’ve visited. Its always advised to limit international travel during the visa process, so you should avoid it until your interview. 
 

For previous travel be sure to have all information to answer any questions the CO might ask.

My interview is in July and I came back from the last country in may and I won’t be traveling until my interview date. Thank you! Do you know what questions they might ask?

For me they asked only which countries did you visit in the last 5 years. I did not travel that much, mostly with US and Canada so they did not ask further. 
I’m assuming if you have a long travel history they may want to ask more questions on that.
