This might be the most dotcom-ish post I've read since joining HackerNews.

Don't get me wrong on this but even the argumentation is clearly wrong here:

> work in places so magical they could be on the cover of travel magazines

> under an umbrella on a beach in Senegal, in cafes in old Arab medinas, and more

> Adventurous Startups.

and then

> YOU’LL BE MORE FOCUSED

I've tried this myself and my experience was that working abroad is totally doable but by no means did I achieve focusing more on my work.

Instead I would pick any chance meeting new people and discover the new environment.

Also: In my opinion everything comes down to networking, which is why a lonely beach in Marocco might not be the right place to start this...
