A mix of mostly expats from all over the world. And I have some Irish friends and colleagues. And lots of Germans. But it helps that I get exposed to a lot of English/US media, youtube, etc.

Americans and Canadians spell things differently but we largely speak the same language. And we would not find your accent a challenge. Culturally, I am closer in some ways to Australians, but linguistically I have more in common with English speakers from Quebec than Aussies.
