You should ask your presumed significant other (re: young lady friend) if she can see herself becoming seriously involved with you, and discuss the possibility of what marriage holds toward your combined futures.

It might give her a jolt of "woah. this American guy I met in Europe is already contemplating marriage?! (pauses)" ... but, given that you'd like some advice here, I suppose it takes an inference that you might actually like the broad, if not actually grow to love her; though, your current individual life situations has you in doubt about whether or not to move forward with this.

I'd close this message with a nice witticism of my own, but I just glanced at this, and it bears heeding in its informed brevity:
