The variable org-directory affects this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Documentation:
Directory with Org files.
This is just a default location to look for Org files.  There is no need
at all to put your files into this directory.  It is used in the
following situations:

1. When a capture template specifies a target file that is not an
   absolute path.  The path will then be interpreted relative to
   ‘org-directory’
2. When the value of variable ‘org-agenda-files’ is a single file, any
   relative paths in this file will be taken as relative to
   ‘org-directory’.
