Yeah you can indeed get by, but essentially the longer you stay, the more issues you will face. It’s easy if it’s just stuff like going to a restaurant or your work, but trying to make friends that are not other immigrants? Dealing with the official bureaucracy hell? Just always being the outsider in every situation with the natives? There’s plenty of stuff you might not notice in the beginning but can be trouble later on
