It’s been 20 years since I was there, but people would see me, an obvious foreigner, and approach me to speak English. It happened pretty much everywhere I went. Before I even said a word, I’d be addressed in English. If I responded in German, they’d respond right back in English.
Not that I’m complaining. I only knew like 100 words in German. Just thought it was an interesting trend.
