I have spent a lot of my career working remotely but also love working on-site, especially for user research-oriented tasks and workshops. If you think I'd be a great fit for your team I'm usually happy to relocate at my own cost, keeping in mind I'm a New Zealand citizen.

Although personality tests show I'm an extrovert, I'm more of an ambivert who adjusts to my surroundings. I show a lot of initiative and autonomy but my preference is to work with a team of people, it's just more fun.
