Google will redirect you to a region specific version of Google based on
geo-location of your source IP. This the the IP of the Tor exit node you're
using, which is why it differs to your location.
If you set your homepage to https://www.google.com/ncr (append the query
string you want to use if desired) you should stay on the .com domain
