Hi all,

I'm a newbie here and I stumbled upon this site when I was searching online to figure out what accent I have. For years, I've been told that I have different accents at different times. So finally, I decided to record myself and hear what I sound like.
What accent do I seem to have? I myself can't pinpoint. I grew up all over the world and have no real geographical roots.

It'd be great if you could listen to it and let me know! Thanks in advance!

Is that your natural voice? It's very croaky; is there a reason for that? It sounds vaguely mechanical. I'd guess it's artificial larynx accent.

Could you record yourself speaking normally- reading aloud is not a good way to judge. The recording does sound strange to me too- there's a lot of interference.
