The Tamil Street Festival in Dortmund took place from 1st to 3rd of September near the U tower. Roselva and I joined the festival on the 2nd day and I was so happy to see Roselva enjoying the event. We had Sri Lankan Street food, especially „Kottu“ and she said it’s the first time she’s trying that dish. A lot of people with a migration background from Sri Lanka and India were there. There were many food stalls, dress and jewellery stalls. We spent a lot of time there and there were musical and dancing events happening on the stage. I was very impressed to see German girls and boys dancing to Tamil songs on the stage! It was very interesting.
