Yes it's possible, but not recommended. USB sticks are not the most
reliable medium so you would need good backups. After you move the
repository to the USB stick you need to TSVN->relocate your working
copy so that the new URL for the repository points to the USB stick,
otherwise your changes at home will write to the disk repository and
your changes at work will write to the USB stick.

A better idea is to set up a proper server.
