Help Multiplayer on pc

Im trying to do multiplayer on pc with my bf, but dont wanna pay for a server. Hamchi worked ages ago but i don't remember how to use it or how it works. Is there any way to do multiplayer with him without getting a server?

It's pretty straightforward to setup a minecraft server with port forwarding. No VPN needed.
