I am overseas on assignment and there are definitely ways to see what you want to see including live tv (ahemm KODI), but if you want to use services like HBO GO, DIRECTVNOW, AMAZON PRIME, etc. it will have to be through VPN services. What sucks about this is two variables; how good is the VPN you pick and how good is the service to detect certain VPNs. Netflix is the best at limiting VPNs to work. But MOST stuff on Netflix is available for the country I'm in, so not that much of an issue. .

I cannot tell you which VPN is the one to use for HBO GO (should be able to google it) but majority of the EXPATS here use ExpressVPN or IPVANISH.

There is also another service, called UNLOCATOR that uses SmartDNS tech to essentially block your IP so you will never get a geo block error. They also state what services will work. HBO GO is listed on there, so look into this instead of a VPN. Click here: UNLOCATOR WEB SITE

I also recommend getting a FREE USTVNOW account. Lets you stream 7 channels for free (ABC,NBC,CBS, etc) and you can get a paid subscription for like 28 more channels. Service was made specifically for our Military and American Expats.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
