You could do the following.
1. install ssh server on your friends machine. Create port forwarding
in their router
Login to their machine as usual using ssh. To reduce ssh brute force
attack, change the ssh port from 22 to some larger number and use the
corresponding port for router port forwarding.
2. Install openvpn server on your machine, client on your friends
machine. access your friends machine just a like a local machine.
First option is the simplest to setup, it gives only ssh access to you.
Second option takes a bit more configuration, but gives you better
security and ease of use after that.
ssh + tightvncserver is also a good possibility.
It's easy to setup and tightvnc will be run over the ssh tunnel
so it should be safe. They will be able to see what you do.

if you want graphical basically the same kind of solution would be to
use FreeNX (free speech) or the Free NX server (free beer)
i've setup FreeNX 2 years ago for a friend and its still up and running,
its faster then any other remote desktop kind of connection, never had
any stability issues and it works over SSH port 22 with the option to
use certificates for security.
