I'm an American who speaks decent German. I've gotten this flak traveling in non-German speaking Europe - Stupid American only speaking English attitude thrown my way. Mother fucker I'm in France, a German would also be using English here. To some people the only way to not be "that American" is to speak all the languages.
On the flip side, I've had a few Germans ask me why I bothered learning their language when I could just use English.
So, why? You can't leave us hanging like this!
Haha I've lived there for almost a year between two stints and had a lot of free time for one of them so seemed like a fun thing to learn.
It very occasionally has been helpful traveling in more rural Germany speaking areas
