Speaking a language without an accent is like wearing clothes without a material
Idk I'm from the central US and I had a German foreign exchange student tell me we didn't have a mimicable accent. I know it's not true but it was interesting to hear that from someone who's familiar with everyone around her speaking in a completely different way, even when using English.
