What do Russian and Polish accents sound like? + Characteristics?

So I was born in the United States but A LOT of people apparently think I am foreign, in most cases they suspect Polish or Russian. They say I look and sound Polish/Russian. ?? Yeah, I'm confused too hahah. I know when I was little I had speech problems and I admit I find myself pronouncing things differently but to go as far as to say I'm from a different country? In addition, I also apparently look foreign (my family thinks cause of our Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry). So I was wondering if anyone knows anything about Polish or Russian accents, plus any visual characteristics :).
