Hello everyone!

I wonder whether you can guess where I’m from.

I don't hear any thing in that website, so I don't know where you're from.

I'm not sure other than European. But would your English teacher be Irish by any chance?

germans pronounce "o" and "r" in a different way. at least people from southern germany.

but i once heard a man from switzerland [native language: swiss german] who had a similiar pronounciation.
my other guess: hungary?

I would say this is a try to mix intentionally different English accents? But if you're the same guy like this victorlinguist, you're really good..  Do you feel the most comfortable with British English?
