Oh Boy, Skype Pro sure didn't last long. I just signed up for it 3 months ago.
In any case, I couldn't find where on skype's web site it details calling back to the US from other countries. I base my comments on experience doing the calling. I have skype pro, $3/month, basically the same plan as their currently monthly "subscription" plan. Maybe it's not the same, but I can't imagine they'd vary how they charge you. For me, calls are free to US/Canada when I'm in the US. Calls cost 2 cents per minute when I'm out of the country, calling back into the US. I can watch my skype-out credit $ amount decrement as I talk.

That's an http/ftp proxy; not really. (Unless you can encapsulate skype traffic in http or ftp).
Assuming you live in the states and are overseas temporarily, leave your computer up and SSH port-forward, maybe?
