I think you'll be OK with a couple of hours a day overseas, especially on long, single calls, to a single number.
Why?
While I do not work for Vonage, and can't state this with any authority, I have some suspicions as to how they detect a "business" user:
A business user would generally make a lot of calls, mostly short, generally to different numbers, throughout the day (telemarketer pattern). Or they would receive many calls from varied numbers, again mostly during the day (business or tech support pattern).
A residential user will tend to call the same numbers frequently, and make longer calls.
I suspect they would be looking for a pattern of many short calls made or received, to/from many different numbers, mostly during business hours or early evening, with very few calls on weekends.
I use my Vonage line for both work and personal use, but NOT running a business (I telecommute). I generally call the same (AT&T Teleconference, non-800) number each morning for my project team's teleconference, which lasts from 1/2 hour to 2 hours depending on the day's challenges. Then I make or receive 5-6 calls to/from any one of a dozen numbers for work, each about 10 minutes or so, in a given day. Most of those are calls to/from a corporate line.
I seriously doubt you'd even show up on the radar screen for any sort of audit as long as your calls aren't regularly over a couple of thousand minutes a month, with lots of calls and lots of numbers. You could easily demonstrate you are not running a business, all Vonage has to do is look up the number you are calling most often, which is obviously not a business.
Take it for what it's worth, as uninformed opinion. I'm only speculating. I'd suspect Vonage would "find" me LONG before they "found" you, though, and they've not said a word to me in almost year, and since I am not running a business, I don't expect they ever will.
