    You would only know you have an accent if you are living in another country or region. Right? At home you have no accent.

    Depending on where you are a British accent or understandable foreign accent can be a social asset especially attractive to members of the opposite sex. Feel free to love it and capitalize on it for that reason.

    Adopting local accents is an option. I am from the midwest US, and my local accent is "hick". Country as opposed to "Southern". I traveled all over the world and lived as a young man and rather than learning the language since I was only each place for a few months I would just listen and adopt the local english accent. The response was so powerful you would have thought I was speaking Hindi or Urdu or Thai, nit english.

    A good way to start is to play with it. Do impressions of the local accent for your friends. They will love it and you will learn.
