Based on Port Said's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
I stayed in Cairo for a week as a solo female (21 years old). I was followed a lot and cat-called / asked for a 'view' or a kiss every 5 minutes even though I was completely covered up, so this is definitely not a place for the faint hearted. It was never with malicious intent though (no one forced themselves on me or even tried to mug me), the culture is just very different than western culture. Whilst they're pushy, they won't do anything unless you let them. It took a couple of days for me to

I lived in Alexandria from 2001 to 2003. The air pollution doesn't stagnate because it's blown inland, unlike Cairo, and the quality of life is better. I have happy memories. I went back for a visit in 2008 and it hadn't really changed, but since then Egypt has endured tumultuous times.

Much more livable that I expected. Downtown is a bit dusty and unclean, but suburbs are great, with lots of restaurants and malls. Furthermore Jordan is smaller than it seems, there is basically one road crossing the country from North to South and you can always visit Petra or the beaches of Aqaba in a daytrip. Just avoid Ramadan as it can be very annoying for foreigners with all the restrictions.

Rental prices at the end of 2021 are nearly double then the years before. This means the value of money makes no more sense. A typical price for a one bedroom apt is now 8000 EGP. May be it will get down to normal when more places in the world are open again.

Ehh, wasn't really impressed. The beach is ok. There's a surprisingly good Israeli restaurant. I guess if I wanted to launder Russian money in an ugly condo this would be a decent option, but Turkey or even Albanian coast are far more interesting...

Quite expensive for such an ugly place. Weather in the winter is not that great...I'd go to Antalya/Kas or even Albanian coast if you need to be outside Schengen Zone in the winter and want something with a mild temp.

Generally favorable on Antalya, but not perfect. The weather was excellent (~26 C almost every day) and the nature of the city is absolutely stunning. The mountains on the west side of the city seem to just explode out of the ocean and it's special to see. That said, the built environment is pretty uninspiring. The center of the city is full of interesting restaurants and shops, but outside of the old town it's not very exciting to look at. My primary complaint, however, is on public transit. It

Internet connection is stable. Mobile broadband speed in range of 3-7 Mbps from home (10 km from center of Tashkent), fiber-optics connection is also stable - up to 50 Mbps at the daytime (from 12 pm till 12 am) and up to 200 Mbps at night (from 12 am till 12 pm)

I've been living for a year in Itaewon-dong, Seoul back in 2015 when i was 22 years old. It was one of the best year of my life, i made lifelong friends overthere. Great culture, great food, great people. The cons : no beach, ultra-capitalist environment, big city life downside (transportation, prices etc...)

Being born there, it's hard to be objective, as most exciting stuff looks dull and tired. But walking in the old town and looking at the castle always makes me feel proud. The city is very cheap considering the living standard (and comparing to other similar Canadian cities). Internet speed are incredibly high and stable even in cheap coffee shops. The coworking scene, either in coffee shops or dedicated workplaces is very interesting. In winter, it gets WAY too cold, but the coldest period last

Spent two years in Montreal. I have zero regrets and it was a lot of fun for a few years, but ultimately needed to leave. Pros: -Good variety of nightlife and activities. From clubs to cool bars to strip clubs, you can find it in Montreal. Drinking here is quite cheap. -Population feels very young in the city center due to multiple large universities. Other areas around are also full of young professionals. Lots of cool trendy areas. -Work to live not live to work attitudes. People in Montrea

Very clean city. Internet varies from medium fast to high speed. Public transport is improving greatly. Personal liberties are high, very safe for women and LGBT folk, not that expensive. Winters can be tough.

I'd avoid Toronto. Weather is miserable for 4-5 months a year. Nightlife is average. Taxes are high. Every conversation with someone from here devolves into how expensive it is (and honestly, it's not particularily expensive... compared to other large english speaking cities). Transit isn't great. City doesn't feel particularily well planned. If you want to live in a cold city, then go to Montreal or Berlin.
