Greetingz!

First, find your external IP address; From your webserver, go to whatismyip.com or icanhazip.com.
When you're outside your internal network, use that IP as the URL. Example: http://127.0.0.1
Note: You may want to secure your site. Look into .htaccess, iptables, and maybe httpd.conf security.

ProTIP: Go to a free DNS provider like DynDNS.com to get a domain name.
