Maybe the better question is;
Do you want to belong and fit into the culture?

It's because I don't belong and I don't fit in that I do so well here.
It's because I don't belong and I don't fit in that my attempts to do so are very well accepted and even praised at times by those who seem to think it's harder to do than it really is.

Fitting in and belonging is way overrated imo.
You can make friends just the same, enjoy your life just the same.
If anything there's a huge lack of peer pressure etc if you decide to accept the role of "that person that doesn't quite fit in".
