I think the fact that you are motivated to learn by yourself counts a bit. If you have passion, you can make up for other stuff.

The other way is maybe to get into open source dev. You will interact with a lot of folks.

Also, physical location doesn't matter that much. See if you can hold code reviews, look at other people's code, talk to other respected developers in your team. That will help.
