What’s an Accent?
The accent refers to variations in pronunciation within the same language or even within the same dialect or variety. Accents differ from standard language.
It means that a speaker of the Rioplatense variety of Spanish in Argentina can speak the European variety of Spanish if needed, using its specific vocabulary and grammar, but still keep the regional accent of their homeland.
An English speaker can choose to learn any variety or dialect of Spanish and still pronounce it with a foreign accent.
The key thing to remember is that “accent” only refers to pronunciation, while dialect must include distinct grammar and vocabulary beyond regional pronunciations.

Pablo Picasso (Spain, 1881-1973)
Perhaps one of the world’s most famous artists of all time, Picasso was a Spanish artist who produced paintings, sculptures, ceramics, and theater sets. Although he painted in a naturalistic style during his youth, he later developed a movement known as Cubism, which also influenced many other artists that came after him.

What Is a Vision Board? / Que es un MAPA DE SUEÑOS?
A vision board is usually a collage of images that represent goals and dreams. It can include cut-out pictures from magazines and words that help inspire you to manifest your dreams and get where you want to go (here is a complete guide on how to manifest something).
Although vision boarding is a commonly used tool, there is not a lot of research on its effectiveness. Initial research suggests it can help us more easily reach our goals. This may be due to how vision boards help us gain self-awareness and self-reflect on what is important to us.
