you find it difficult to make friends because of cultural differences, but little by little you learn how to adapt to all of these.
Why don’t you join a sports club? You are always keen on yoga and you can meet new people with the same interests in the gym. And don’t forget to go to every annual event like Christmas party or Halloween, many young people come to these parties and you can talk to them or even give them your phone number.

situation.
Take care and stay in touch,
All the best,
