When I started to get elected for office I - like politicians often do - selected some running mates. One of them is a Belgian and also got elected as was the other Dutchman. We only meet once or twice a year. For the other board meetings we use the phone and e-mail. Saves a lot of time as we don't have to travel. Nowadays a phone conference also is an option. When using Skype that's without any charges if all are at their computers. So a board doesn't actually have to have its members close to "home", they even can be at the other side of the world.
