International calls are only expensive if you don't know what you're doing. Just use WhatsApp or any other VoIP provider. Who are you calling on landlines anyway?
Hint for those visiting a foreign country: just get a weekly data plan for like $8 and use Google Voice or WhatsApp to call home. Need an unlocked phone for that though.
That is good advice for visiting most countries, America it's crazily complex and expensive to get a phone especially if you don't have an address and American ID. It was cheaper to buy a cheap phone in the UK and connect to someone with decent roaming charges than it was to get a phone in the US
