Solution 1:

You can place in a folder in your PYTHONPATH.

To know which folders are in your PYTHONPATH you can run this python code

import sys
print sys.path

OR put it anywhere (probably you will have to add empty file named __init__.py ) then do this before use,

import sys
sys.path.append('/absolute/path/to/your/tweepyparentdir')
