If you are a beach lover, Honolulu, Hawaii, is calling your name! And while the time difference can be a deal breaker, if your office is based on the east coast, you can start your day a little early and have all afternoon to enjoy paradise, especially if you live in one of the many condos sitting right in front of Waikiki Beach.

If you are a mountain person, Petaluma, California, might be the best place for you. With many co-working spaces, coffee shops, craft breweries, a beautiful coast and some incredible vineyards.

If you are looking for a cultural city with less crowds,  Topeka, Kansas , offers great restaurants, coffee shops, food trucks, and beer gardens. Additionally, you can explore historical buildings, murals and art galleries in the North Topeka Arts District and visit Topeka Music Week this summer.
