I was born in sunny Bournemouth on the south coast of England in Dorset which has palm trees and clean beaches, raised in the countryside in Kent for a while, before my family returned back to Dorset where both my mother and fathers relatives stem from.
I now live in Westminster City in the western part of Central London, Little Venice in Maida Vale to be more precise. I lived in Angel, Islington in London for a short while.
Even tho I identify myself as a Londoner, I primarily identify myself as being from the West Country and the South Coast due to my upbringing there and my relatives stemming from the region, even though some have since moved to Austria, Scotland and Ireland.
I don't have a rhotic west country accent though, just a very soft voice and a neutral southern accent with no strong accent.
I'm considering moving further north since I can't stand the level of sun and the uncomfortable heat in the south of England during the spring and summer months. I love the rain, snow, and silver-grey skies more. I love Lancashire accents.
