    When I was a child (80s) growing up in Germany I had to lie and say I was Canadian. I recommend this strategy.

      Honestly considering saying we’re from BC. It’s a short drive from us anyway.

        It will be the best decision you ever made. I promise. I hated being an American in Germany in the 80s. I can’t imagine what it’s like now. It can be quite dangerous, tbh. Be safe.

      I just use my Swiss Pass in Europe. Having spent time in Niedersachsen, I can have a very convincing Standarddeutsch accent.
