How to pretend to surf from another country

I have a need to be able to pretend I am surfing the web from another country for work. Does anyone know how I can do this? I tried Hotspot Shield Elite but I found that the Adwords ads do not show up like they do when I am physically inside the country. I don't know why. My browser cookies, etc are all cleared totally. I wouldn't mind a free solution but paying is fine as it's a work expense.

Anyone have any recommendations?

A reliable VPN (PIA) while browsing in incognito mode.

Google ads and the search results ordering vary by region within the United States as well as by country. You will get different results if you are in Washington state versus Washington DC, and the same applies to your VPN proxy server location.

VPN is not the same as spoofing your ip address to another country of your choice. I ended up downloading surfeasy and it does the trick.
