I use mostly either Skype, Whatsapp or facebook voice to call family in South Africa and various friends all over the world no matter where I am. Belgium and South Africa are in the same time zone during the European summer/South African winter.

Skype also has some very good deals for calls to landlines and mobiles around the world. Depending on how much you actually need to call and where, a fixed amount (subscription) will get you unlimited calls to landlines and mobiles from your Skype account.

In Belgium, we have vastelijn, internet and mobile with Telenet, and when abroad, even in places like South Africa, we use the Telenet service called Triiing (yes, it's spelled with 3 i's) to call mobile and landline anywhere in Europe for free. This service works via an app on a smart phone or tablet when connected to wifi anywhere in the world. Over and above the EU, the Triiing service also allows free phone calls to mobile and landlines in places like Canada, USA, and some north African countries.

So yes, I do make free international phone calls from our Belgian landline and mobile phone, but I don't have to be physically present in Belgium to do so :-)
