I'll start!

I learnt English in Brazil, with Brazilian teachers. In general, we can say that the majority of schools and materials used in this context are American. Also, we tend to consume more American films, series and music.

I am saying this to explain my slight preference to the American accent. It always sounded more natural and familiar to my ears. And especially after studying for so many years and living in the USA, I also spoke with a more Americanized accent.

After living in other countries, meeting more British people, using more European materials as a teacher, (etc.) and eventually marrying an English man, I am afraid to say I am more used to the ("standard")British accent now.
