What is the best way to have a VPN in each continent (apart from the obvious option to have an instance in each region)? I used to pay for a commercial service, but I lost this functionality when I switched to a self-hosted solution.

I prefer this feature since I travel a lot and would like to have lower latency wherever I am.

What is wrong with purchasing a VPN that is made to provide this functionality on the cheap? i don't get why everybody has to try do it themselves. If you're worrying about tainted IPs, pay a little more for a VPN that logs. All good VPNs support connecting via openVPN at this point.

I swap with friends: they host an endpoint someplace they control and I host one in my colo in California.

They are friends of mine whom I know well so don't worry about one of my IP addresses being used to download child porn.
