Everyone's given a lot of good advice, and it seems like you're making aims to get over this funk. I would have this to say, play up your American-ness if you're having trouble meeting people. I think many people abroad are at least interested in meeting foreigners. At least, that was the impression I got when I went to Europe.

Also, when you're feeling good and not too busy, pull out a map and make plans for daytrips. Then when you're in a funk, go on one of those daytrips you've planned. Call someone you've met or go by yourself. Getting out and about makes a big difference.

Best of luck.
