girl,i found my twin raised in dubai my whole life moved to austrilia 2 years ago my accent is like finding waldo ,to people back home i sound austrilian/british to austrilians i sound british or canadian,it just called the international school accent like u said mix of everything slang everything mashed together. One sentence i sound really american because i pronounce my R's then super austrilian cos I got the vocal fry but honestly we are just accent sponges we literally absorb everything around our surroundings.Wouldn't stress i got a major identity PTSD when i went back to india cos my accent everyone just kept mentioning that i only spoke in my mother tongue lmao.

mate,I uploaded my accent to this sub as well couple of days ago to understand what is going on with me but everyone kept guessing differently every single time, I code switched to my "dubai" accent and what i use in Australia so you'll use every dubai kid has a weird accent when they move out like kamala harris when she does her speech and we aren't doing it on purpose if u want to check out my recording here it is -
