PPTP Routing

Hi

I have difficulty setting up a PPTP connection between two Mikrotiks on the Internet.
The scenario is as follows:

We have a Mikrotik at our Headoffice that is behind a Uncapped data link and the Mikrotik has a public static IP assigned to it i.e. you can connect to it via your browser and typing its IP address. At a remote site i have a mikrotik behind a router but the IP is not public.
I set up a PPTP server at our headoffice and I let the remote Mikrotik connect as a PPTP client. this works fine but I would like to build a routing table so that the remote office can use the Head-office's internet connection to browse internationally.

The reason for this is that the account that the remote site has with its ISP allows only for local traffic in other words no international internet browsing. Because the Head-office has a public local IP the remote site can see it so therefore I want to use the Head-office's international connection to allow browsing to remote site

I hope my question is clear
Is this possible to do this kind of config?

You need to have two routes on PPTP-client.

First route to PPTP-Server which should point to the default gateway of the connection at PPTP-client site.
Second route for all other traffic 0.0.0.0/0 which should point to PPTP-server local-address (address of PPTP tunnel, which is assigned by PPTP-server).
