I suppose I speak many "dialects" in the different lenguages I speak.
In my mother tongue (spanish) not, in fact I speak the basis-dialect for the lenguage.

I have moved all over but I speak Brabants (mum was from Breda - but most of my young years were tied to Waalwijk) But only when I am with my family down South. Normally, I sound rather standard Dutch (forced myself throughout my teenage years thanks to the education system at the time). I "get" Haags (spoken in The Hague) as well as I have family there as well but really speaking it ? No. I understand it though and some friends used to teach me some rather colourful language (very typical - the real old-fashioned Hagenezen - rather than the upper crust Hagenaars who everybody loved (and probably still loves) to hate) have a very unique way of expressing themselves there). For speaking as a normal civilised human being, Brabants is better, for expressing your discontent, Haags is the better one. I also understand and speak (albeit rusty now) some Limburgs (of the Central variant between Weert and Roermond. Most people I used to hang out with when I the child care system were from that region).
Wake up and smell the coffee.

Also, I have a TON of loanwords from Quebec etc.

Italo-Brazilian dialect of São Paulo. Far from popular, usually prone to jokes, but very well known in Brazil. São Paulo city has 3 different accents, state has 5.

The Castilian/Spanish language is so unified and so much the same through all Spain and Hispanic America, that it doesn't have different dialects, but just different accents, just like in English there is an English accent from England, a Canadian accent, several US American accents, Australian accent, etc, but all of them understand each other in 99.9999% of what they say.
With Castilian/Spanish is the same: there are several Castilian/Spanish Spanish accents, Cuban accent, Mexican accent, Venezuelan accents, Colombian accents, Peruvian accent, Argentinian accent, Chilean accent, Paraguayan accent etc, etc, which all speak the SAME Castilian/Spanish language, but just with their own accent and some few local slang words. That's it.
Regarding me, my accent is mostly Venezuelan (from the northern Central region of Venezuela), but with some slight mix of Spanish (from Spain) and Mexican accent (through Mexican friends and acquaintances I had here) influences.
My English accent? idk, my English is far from perfect but I suppose that is influenced by the midwest variety.
