Moving to Australia with my girlfriend—looking for opinions on my accent
Hi everyone, My girlfriend is Australian, and we’re planning to move back to Australia next year. I work remotely in IT, so the move is doable, but I’m a bit nervous about my accent. English is my third language, and while she says I speak really well, I’d love to hear the opinion of different Australians and how to improve. I want to make a good impression when meeting her family and friends, so I’ve been working hard on improving my accent. I recorded myself talking and would really appreciate your feedback.
