Having spent 6 months in Argentina and almost 3 months in Madrid, I've heard a lot a different types of Spanish. So I was wondering which type do you prefer in terms off accent, slang etc. For me, my favorite is the Argentine accent, it sounds so damn sexy! Now I'm living with some mexicans so I'm also learning mexican slang which is really funny. My house mate seems to construct every sentence with at least 4 'gueys' 3 'pinches' 2 'cabrons' and 1 'no mames'.

Honduranian accent
I have only heard Spanish accent from Spain, Columbia and Honduras. The one I prefer is the Honduranian (?) that I find very beautiful.

Spain!

Spanish, what can I say? ;)

However, I must admit I do find the Argentinian accent very sexy too... Although at times it can be a bit too much!

My Spanish teacher is

My Spanish teacher is Columbian and my girlfriend is from Madrid.  I find the Columbian accent much slower and clearer to understand (though it could be because my girlfriend only uses Spanish when she's shouting at me!!)

My first spanish teacher was

My first spanish teacher was Argentino so I have an affinity for that accent.  But you know, I love listening to Cubans (or any of the other accents from the Caribbean).  It's so laid back.
