Or VPN in, or set up a tunnel of some sort.  Have ssh available over
the tunneled interface.  Yup, lots of options available.

Though, if you have a secure ssh and reasonable control of your
passwords it is probably safe to leave it at port 22 rather than
resorting to security by obscurity measures like running it on a
higher number port or (as at least one webhost does) running it on
443, with some kind of shim listening on that port, intercepting
requests to it and redirecting them to apache or sshd as appropriate.
