Site recs for a place to do basic journaling?

So I think journaling would be a good way to help with the homesickness and culture clashes since I've gotten here. But I'm wanting a site with ACTUAL community and as little drama as possible. Livejournal looked decent but there seems to be no actual interconnection between the members. Blogging is just meh. I like the interaction of ideas and freeflow of community. Any recs?
