I have to say that I absolutely love all of the nordic accents in English. Also, I find that nordic English speakers are the most comprehensible of all non-native speakers. Often y'all speak a cleaner and more beautiful sounding English than anything you'll find in North America, especially in terms of vocabulary. It's just so nice and flowery. Any time I hear a nordic accent the speaker immediately has my full attention. Lol

I lived in France for eight months a couple years back and yeah, it can be hard to understand when they speak English, but sometimes it can be captivating too. It really depends on the speaker.
