You're not kidding there.
This is a true story: a few years ago I went on a coach touring holiday of Italy, with a company who takes passengers from all over the English-speaking world - the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, etc. There was an elderly couple on the coach from Louisville, Kentucky who literally could not understand a word that I said (I have a Yorkshire accent - Northern England). Another guy, from New York, had to act as an "interpreter" for them (the New York guy could understand me without any problems).
