People from Germany or those who have been to Germany recently:

How easy it is to get by in Germany for a person whose German is, sadly, dead? Do people understand English? Does that vary from one big city to the next? Which are the best cities to visit for an English-speaking tourist? Is March a good time to travel?

I have the same question for readers from and travelers to Amsterdam.

Also, I know that Germany is amazing in terms of food. Is Holland also worth it in the culinary sense?

I’m considering visiting these countries, so any suggestions will be welcome.

I’d also love to go to Prague,  but I will have to choose between that and the Netherlands.
