If you enjoy writing travel articles and are good at finding the great things about a location - note: this seems legit

If you're fine with writing articles - note: this might be a scam, because I couldn't find any information on who's running this thing and if they actually pay

Note: full service investment firms are worth it. If you save up $1000, you can invest it at any firm worth its salt.

Selling stock photos is also a viable opportunity if you have a good digital camera
If you are fluent in two languages and a patient teacher, try this:

If you are only fluent in English but have one year of some kind of teaching or tutoring experience, a bachelor's degree, AND want to teach English to kids in Asia, AND have a great internet connection plus a mic and camera, try this:

Selling extra stuff online can be done through Craigslist and Ebay. Both have drawbacks. It is usually better to sell your extra stuff to people you already know or people in the local area. Garage sales are underrated.
Writing novels or other books to earn money is something that only works if you have good information to impart or are really good at writing stories. You should also consider making graphic novels or comics. These things can be done online too. If you can do it, do it.

There is also Etsy. Of course. https://www.etsy.com https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to ... g-on-Etsy/
The amount of stuff you can sell on Etsy is incredible. Art, jewelry, crafts of all kinds. If you're able to do it, then get yourself a store. Specifically if you are disabled: 2D art is usually doable. Origami, papercuts, calligraphy, ink painting, and so on - those are all low-spoon activities.
You should also look at Fiverr https://www.fiverr.com but note that you have to be certain your internet connection will be stable even when you're traveling. You're forced to check the damn thing every day and there is no leniency if your internet goes out for 24 hours. Meaning: if you don't have a smartphone with roaming data to get online don't do it.
Whatever you do, don't do Mechanical Turk. You'll find yourself earning like $50 a week if you're lucky, and that is with clocking in many, many hours doing monotonous tasks. That being said, hour for hour you'd be earning many times what you would on Swagbucks or other "free money" survey sites like that.
