Click on the gear wheel. (Top right) Click 'Einstellungen'. At the top of the page, select 'Englisch' from the 'Gmail-Anzeigesprache' drop-down menu in the "Sprache" section. Click 'Änderungen speichern' at the bottom of the page.
PS: It might be worth checking whether there's something on your computer which is routing your internet traffic via a proxy server in Germany (which might explain why Google's servers think that you're there!).
