In most countries, people are suspicious of everything different - so the more different you are (physically, but also in your way of life and habits), the more you will be discriminated against. Also, it is uncomfortable to be always the odd one out!!!

Another problem is the language. Unless you are fluent, it will probably limit your interaction with locals quite dramatically, as well as generate misunderstanding. Not being able to follow and take a stand on local issues, to pick up a simple conversation when at the coffee shop or in the break room in your work place, forcing everybody else to speak English will limit your ability to "fit in".

People will accept you when you act similar than people in a country you move in and when you have similar values or even when you look similar to them (like for example blond girl from Poland who moves to Sweden).

you can avoid being stranger in a country you moved in, by complying by their law!

you can't move in, in other country go against their law, and propagate your agenda...

pretty well, if you try to be flexible, honest and good natured whenever you encounter them.

sometimes patience and a smile wins out over fluency anyway...
