You can actually use Google voice in another country as long as you have access to the internet.
 
Sometimes if I am I another and I need to call someone in that country I will go to a place that has WiFi and make the call like if i was in the US
and i call that country's phone number.
 
It worked for me in Japan, Panama, Philippines, Mexico, Peru

That's fine, but as I said earlier, only available to users in the US.
Google Voice had been around for quite some time now and has never
expanded its service beyond the US (not just calling but unified phone
numbers etc.), all of which I would have been interested in at one
time.
