I think it boils down to what your response would be if a brand new manager asked you to come in.
Remote work - "Well, I live in [location on the other side of the world], so let me know when you have the airfare settled!"
Work outside of the office - "Okay, see you at [time later today]."
A lot of American companies allow you to "work outside of the office" but I think a lot of managers would not react too kindly to their people randomly being halfway across the country without being told.
