I always find that too much time in the same space seems to slow my mind down and I can't get ideas flowing.. I don't really have the means to go abroad but I find taking a break and going for a walk in the park always opens up a world of creativity for myself... So I always keep a notepad in my pocket..

Particularly where I'm from in the UK there are a lot of near-by Airports I can choose from, and there are plenty of budget airlines offering some amazing deals, especially if they are last minute. This might not be the same in every country, but overall the cost of flying is cheaper now than 10 years ago for example, there is more competition between airlines and more airlines now than ever before. @Kai I think it really depends when where and how you book your flights.

To be productive you gotta be at a quite place with a good office eqipment - at least I do. One thing in your post I strongly disagree with: international flight have become more and more expensive recently. I fly back and forth between Germany and Australia. 5 years ago a return flight cost around 1000 EUR. Today that's the price you pay for a one way flight. :-( I agree with Lucinda.

I would find it quite hard to work somewhere with a lot of people around, so I'd probably lean towards somewhere secluded. But on the other hand some people might be more comfortable in a busy coffee-shop, or a park with a lot of people around. Although you don't always have to take your work with you, just going for a walk and thinking about things counts as work in my eyes.

I certainly do get a great deal of inspiration from away from the office and often will be seen at a beach with a sketch pad or camera. Maybe I should go abroad and give it a go....

I just moved so I could be walking distance from more cafe's and places with WiFi so I can start mixing up my working environment.
