Learn German language

No matter wherever you travel in the world, making an attempt to learn some of the local languages surely goes a long way. In a world where the English-speaking tourists all too commonly think that everyone else on the planet can and must speak their language, travelers who make an attempt to learn basic phrases and use them in their interactions with locals rapidly find that their efforts are not only highly liked and appreciated, but that it also mostly results in a smoother journey overall.

In Berlin, the vast majority of people speak English very well. But that is not to say you should not be polite and attempt to speak ein bisschen Deutsch a little German outside of the capital city. English speakers are less common, specifically, amongst the older proportion of the population. Whatever region you wish to travel to in Germany, show some courtesy and politeness by using some common phrases in German.
