So, I do have two VPN servers running, one on my home connection, and one on AWS, for just the reason you state.
That said, I got back from a week long trip a few weeks ago. I kept my AWS tunnel up the entire trip. For the set of websites I visit for personal and work reasons, it was never an issue. I'm sure I could find some website that doesn't work, but for me, it's just not a problem.
It's also super useful, since I can whitelist my AWS instance's IP on services that demand such things, and never have to worry about where I am as I move from network to network. I've also reserved the Elastic IP so I can stop/terminate my server when I want without needing to whitelist the IP again when I spin it back up
