Web pages were loading in the foreign language my VPN was in, so I tried using a free proxy but couldn't find a reliable way to make that work. Any suggestions?

It's because the website is trying to guess your country by the IP you're using instead of browser useragent. Don't know anything to change that, only change the language on the page if possible
