I'm Romanian and our language is a latin one. When pronouncing both "l" and "r" my tongue first goes to the upper alveolar ridge and for "r" it stays there with the tongue trembling for a bit.

Also, our "r" is much thicker than in English. For that reason, our English accent resembles a bit that of Russians :-)
