I just moved to Queretaro, Mexico, where I´m a TEFL teacher. I really love my job and Mexico is amazing... I studied abroad in Cuernavaca years ago and longed to go back to Mexico. I have loads of friends in Cuernavaca, but I wanted to move to a brand new place and start a brand new life. I don´t want to go back to the States (I´m from Florida) and I love TEFL teaching. I´m just lonely, and it sucks so much that all my friends are far away and I don´t know anyone!!I´ve been here for three weeks, and my roommate tells me ´´no te desesperes´´ (don´t despair), but it´s tough to be lonely. I don´t have many people I can talk to. I want to make some friends here so badly, but I have very little contact with other people. I just go to my job, and home, and that´s it. I´m going to join a gym soon... but I´m doing it for my health and because the gym is my hobby. I speak fluent Spanish and I´m friendly, I just don´t know how to meet people or where to go.I´m so lonely! I don´t regret coming here but I´m just so sad because I feel isolated, in my own little world.´´Mil gracias´´ if you can help me.

You might want to go out with a couple of co-workers and try to meet new people every time you go out. Try joining a group, join a dance class, you might even want to join the red cross you can meet a lot of people doing that. Good luck and just be patience you will find new friends just give it time.
