Are personality traits important?

Dear expatriates
Some literature say that people who are open, agreeable, emotionally stable, can effectively survive in culturally different country. Are you agree with it?

Yes, of course.  Although, I wouldnt say that having these traits are enough to guarantee that one is happy being an expat.

yes i agree ;)

Yes, I totally agree.
In order to survive in a foreign country you first have to accept its culture. Being open minded and happy with yourself allows it.

I believe we do create our circumstances to a large extent and so, consequently, if we are relaxed, able to listen and to share joy then sure weŽll often meet these traits in others.

i think that the personality is an effective factor in your relation with new friends
