hey!!
sit ups and push ups are great! mix them up a bit too though...
~crunches, 45 degree crunches, full sit ups, leg raises, etc
~push ups, slower half-way ups, (try this) push up then go down on your forearms then from that position extend back up to a reg push up! I love them!!! planks, 1 arm 1 leg planks
~squats around rooms, down hall ways, wall squats holding for 1-2mins
~no weights? improvise with other things!
~use stairs for doubled squats, calf raises, low dips
These are some ideas I use when in places out of my own workout environment!
hope they help a bit!

When you go somewhere? Meaning you travel a lot? Easy! Take a deck of cards, make a list of exercises in your mind, and flip a card. That's how many reps you have to do of that exercise. Repeat with a different exercise each flip. All 52 cards takes more effort than you might think and it keeps it interesting!

Lunges are really good. Filled water bottles and cans of soda or soup work for weights if you have them.
