I've lived in a couple of countries abroad and can speak a number of languages and just love accents, can imitate several in my own language and can even immitated a few in some foreign languages (not to mention cross-languages accents, like English with a French or Italian accent).

It's amazing how even small nations (like my native Portugal or The Netherlands were I also lived) have several accents and they seem to include one which is hard to understand for everybody else.
