You make valid points. I threw in Cayman Islands because I know someone there and I might be able to rent from them.
As for the telecommuting, the startup has a couple of developers that don't live in the same state. They are flown in whenever needed, but it seems to be working well. The thing is, I want to use my summer to travel and to experience cool internships. Unfortunately, these two things don't mesh very well hence this idea.

Never been there, but Panama looks good: cheap cost of living, fast internet, sizeable "knowledge worker" expat community (from cursory googling), good nightlife, etc.
