What I do is:
- follow people or newspapers in other countries/continents, a bit random at the beginning
- make sure I get a notification for their publications. Otherwise you have to be awake in the middle of the night to see what's happening there.
- read their publications and the interactions they create, to choose more people to follow.
Not perfect, but at least for the Americas I have some connections. Much harder for Asia, though.
