It's a short clip, sorry about the quality and the random story. I've been wondering for a while what kind of accent I have.

I don't think you are from anywhere near a coast or a Great Lake.

The audio didn't work for me, I only caught a few phrases. I'd guess Northeast and near a coast.

I am navy. As in the color.

I'm not sure if it's the site I uploaded it to or my microphone itself but it sounded alright when I listened to it on my computer. Sorry, though.
