Based on Trondheim's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
I'm a native Ålesunder, and I'll be honest: this city is boring as hell. Very few cafés/restaurants/bars/museums/etc. Therefore it'll also be hard to make friends and connections. As with the rest of Norway, it's very expensive. The public transport is limited. The pros: Art Noveau architecture and lots of green areas, generally very safe city regardless of neighborhood. I'd recommend stopping by for a few days (a week tops) if you're in Norway anyway, but I would not recommend moving here for

The city is promoting startups and improving environment toward internationalisation, so the future is bright and worthy.

Because the weather is so cold, windy and partly rainy that you just don't want to spend time outside. If you have someone to cuddle with, I highly recommend going there in Winter.

Great restaurants, Broadway plays (!), and in the summer you frequently can catch a free concert.
