Based on Mombasa's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
In summer season, temperature will 31°C, feels like 36 or more, humidity is 90% even at 28°C. Nearly impossible to to work without a good AC. In rainy season, temperature drops under 30 and air quality becomes just terrible, leaving a window open will leave your floor black. Lots of places to rent, but very hard to close a long term rent deal due to landlords unwilling to close a deal remotely (cash only). Long term rentals are much more affordable than airbnb.
