What conditions do you write best in?

Is there a particular place your write best in? When do you write?

By hand or typed or both? Music while writing or no music? Indoors outdoors etc..

I do not write at home because I have no desk or chair! Sounds a bit odd but I am living in a kind of cell at present with just a bed. I have a home computer but I write at the university where I am studying. I cannot stand silence so I listen (earphones) to trance music on www.live365.com.

I can write almost anywhere as long as I have a pad and pen with me. But when typing it up I have to be in the spare room as it is the only place I can get anything done without getting to distracted. Unless I go on the internet of course.

I love to write in holidays (when I feel free from responsabilities and worries). I always prefer to write alone in my bedroom (being alone is essential to me). I enjoy natural noises and music (specially Amy Winehouse). I use to type all my projects, but I also write thousands of reminders on colorful little papers (my room is full of them). I would love to write outdoor too, but unfortunatelly this is impossible by now... :(
