I'd disagree. Sometimes it's about who you are, not about what you do. In some societies you can blend in easily (like San Francisco), in some -- there's no chance, no matter what you do.
- ilaksh 6y agoTrue that some societies are much more open or blending in is easier. Still think most of the other things I said apply if you include all of the context rather than just what you quoted.
- xwolfi 6y agoYou can change who you are. Really. In fact if you immigrate, I'd argue you must. You'll never change your physical appearance, but you can change everything else, your name, your language, your ideas. Don't immigrate if you don't love the local customs so much you're ready to die for them.
