i Was in a similar situation to you... I moved to the opposite side of the world, didnt know anyone
the key, whether you are blind or sighted, is stepping outside of your comfort zone... when you are the new person, you really have to put yourself out there.. if you are like me, you will feel pretty awkward, but honestly, repetition repetition... it will get easier
are you single? If so hit up tinder... become a tinder fiend, this will not necessarily get you friends, but it will be easier to meet new people, give you a bit of a confidence boost, and hey, maybe get laid
$1 is really good for a new city... if you have no group hobbies, then go do something you’ve never done... one thing for example I did, was I went to group Spanish meetups... don’t know a word of Spanish but I was able to meet people.
why can’t you go out at night? Can you not just take an uber door to door?
good luck
