It's not easy making new friends in a foreign place but I've found that the best bet is to be as open to getting to know people as possible, and gradually you'll build up a network of friends from locals to expats to those just passing through.... Join a club, take up a hobby (as Jerri suggested above) and get yourself out there. If you are shy, I can imagine it's much more difficult, but staying at home won't help. Just smile and be friendly and before you know it you'll have some genuine friends. Best of luck!
