1. Where are you?
2. Undelete facebook, don't read the news feed, let people add you and add people you meet and let them invite you to events.
3. Find out what messaging programs people use (Skype, etc.), install them and keep in touch when possible.
4. Go to meetups about things that interest you.
5. Work on your english. Even better, if at all possible, go to language related meetups and get teach someone your first language in exchange for them improving your english.
6. Lower your standards. When you don't know anyone you can't be super choosy. You can raise your standards after knowing more people.
