I think the best option is to have possibility to work in any company, and live in any place. You don't want to limit your job opportunities just because they are far away.

Easy to say with an American passport.

Now tell people from Mexico that they can't go to work in US because immigration laws, but Americans can go work there because they just need an internet connection and you can serve them drinks while they sit on the beach.

Any company is 1% thinking, many companies hire only local workers because it's their market.

Take into account timezones and you can't possibly work for Australians or New Zealanders while living in Europe, unless there's an office in Europe that coordinates the efforts with HQ.

I've worked for long time with US based companies from GMT+2 and it's been exhausting at times. Wouldn't do it again if I can avoid it.

Some things look better on the surface than they really are.
