Although I am not currently an intern (applying this year), I can relate to this post quite a bit, as I moved 2500 miles away from home to join AmeriCorps after undergrad. It was very hard at first and found myself missing my social support network. However, I tried really hard to meet new people in the area and build on those relationships to increase my local social support, which really ended up helping me. Additionally, I found it helpful to plan a trip home, so I had something to look for and felt that it was a "light at the end of the tunnel." Skype and FaceTime can also be helpful. You may already be doing these things, but thought I'd weigh in on what was helpful for me during a time when I felt similarly.
