Based on Beirut's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
I rented a house at the bottom of Mount Kassioun for a few months in 2004, in the French-style, newer part of Damascus, near the US Embassy. There's also the walled (with several different entrances) ancient, warren-like, oval-shaped city, which is about a mile across with lots of markets, small hotels and restaurants. I hear post-war Damascus, unlike Aleppo, is fairly intact.

For the most part, it's orientated around suburbian living. The main city (Johannesburg CBD) is for the most part a no-go because of crime, but if you know some locals you should definitely check it out there are amazing restaurants, theatres and museums to experience there. Having lived here for 30+ years, I'd recommend checking out Sandton CBD, restaurants in Linden, Wand

Generally speaking, lifelong friends are made in school and then there´s family. People are very nice and sociable but forget about making friends.

Tons of tourists and overcroweded public transport. Yes, it´s a beautiful city but quite unlivable.
