| American vs. Aussie Accents
First off, I love the Australian accent, but what makes it so loveable is the people who use it.
My advice - be yourself. Look - even Americans have accents. I was born in the north and raised in the south, I've heard it all and ended up with no discernable accent. The Chinese love listening to me, but like the other poster said, they may not be able to function in the real world as easily.
Hit 'em with your Australian accent, but then clarify with your Aussie accent, and most of all, be yourself! They'll love you for it. Really!!
