Alone and lost....its a bit depressing really..

Hi, not sure what to post really, think i just need some general cheering up. i am currenlty in the country where my parents come from, staying with an old relavtive and am finding the whole thing rather hard. i do not know anyone my own age here, about from a few cousins, and i dont really know them that well and they seem to be too busy to see me much. i have been here a few weeks and will be here for a few more.

i am staying with my relative who is going slightly loopy, keeps forgetting things (like taking me out with her to get food so i can choose some things i want to eat and not just have to live off her diet of vegetables!) and generally does not seem that concerned about my welfare. the only people who come to the house are old and not very interesting, and the same can be said about the people she takes me to see.

i have found meslef at a bit of a loss of what to do with myslef. where i am staying is slightly out of town and so i cant get around on my own, so am stuck here. normally i am a friendly outgoing person, and am happy to speak to strangers and make friends easily. but here i am really struggling. i feel very lonely and often the only person i speak to all day is my relative. i feel like i am turning into a recluse and cant be mylsef. add on tp of that that women here are meant to be submissive and its really all a bit to much for me...

also as someone who is obviously not from here, and as a young women, its not advisable for me to walk on the streets on my own, espcially after dark.

not sure what i'm asking for here but just needed to have a rant i guess!
