Hello community, I moved out of India 20 years ago and currently live in Frankfurt, Germany. I grew up in a wonderful joint family in Madras and I very fondly remember the traditions and festivals we celebrated when I was a child. Those lovely memories, rightly so for a child, are all of the delicious food that my mother so diligently prepared and none of what she actually did on those days. I lost my mother 13 years back and unfortunately, with her went also the knowledge of traditions. I never celebrated any festivala for the last 13 years because it reminded me of my mother's absence. This year, I had my son, my first child and I would like to keep our traditions alive. Except, I have no idea where to begin. I have been scouring this forum for festivals and procedures and they have been very helpful. What I would really like is to meet someone here in Frankfurt, and perhaps celebrate together to make things easier. I have a day job, so someone who also understands celebrating festivals on a tight time schedule would be a great fit. If you know of someone, who knows someone, or if you are that someone and up for some good company, please reach out. Thanks!
