Well https://myip.com has an API that is really easy to consume. This oneliner help me lot:

curl https://api.myip.com -s | perl -lane 'print $1 if /"ip":"(.*?)"/g'

You can save it as a function

myip() { curl https://api.myip.com -s | perl -lane 'print $1 if /"ip":"(.*?)"/g'; }

And this will save you a lot of boring googling
