For just a suggestion as to location, and I will admit RIGHT off, it's a
totally selfish one, but Toronto is a great city that fits exactly what
you are describing.

Huge airport, its cheap because of the conversion from Euro or USD into
CAD.
Canada seems to be a pretty easy country to get into (they let me in
:P). In addition to that, its fairly close to Boston without the whole
US part of it, and there are at least 3 developers within a very close
distance of it.

Again, just a suggestion, and even though it is a bit selfishly
motivated, it is a good suggestion I believe.
