I would think freeport area or faydwer would be your best bet. Both are active newbie areas and are geographicly the center of the world. If you are in one and need to go to the other to find a group you are close to the boat and porters tend to be around. Don't be shy about asking porters for ports, especially if you search and they are hanging around EC. Most are happy to port newbie chars for free and even when you get a few levels whatever donation you can afford is appreciated.
/who all 5 10 (or whatever range you are looking for) is your friend. Do some searching, talk to others to find out what they are doing, how long they will be on etc, and be willing to travel.
