In pretty much the same ways you do, actually; I've had a mental image of myself as more introverted than you, but now that I'm thinking about it, that might not be true.
One thing I've found: a request to take a nap works particularly well for when I *don't* have a room of my own, because a host is likely to let me nap in their bedroom or another secluded space. I grew up doing that, at my mom's occasional suggestion, at family friends' homes -- even if we weren't staying overnight but were just there for an evening.
