Ello!
Being in an unfamiliar place is always discomforting to us. Ever play a survival game where you can explore, possibly die easy, and find yourself constantly using the same paths, and generally sticking to the areas you know?
Frankly, it's human nature to miss what we had and go back to that comfort zone. It sounds like your character has had a major milestone in their story, which is now backstory moving forward, that you can play off of in the future. As far as advice goes? Just get out there and try to be social, maybe go to a few events, fight in the Grindstone, hang out at a few bars; you never know where you will meet contacts that will stick.
Another thing to keep in mind is that you need a character that can be engaging and not always resulting in waiting on someone to come to you. Many try the silent type who lean against a wall and it's usually what leads to a dry spell in their RP because they won't interact. Actually, even if you are standing by the wall you could still emote doing so and that your character looks about, maybe your eyes linger on someone, something for people to bite onto. I'm not saying your character is one these, but I don't really know by what's you've told me if they are or not but this is just the worst case scenario. Some people might ignore you, but there will be those out there as hungry as you are.
Otherwise, if you need writing ideas, give us a lil information on what you are looking for and I'm sure there are plenty of us that would love to help.
