Eva Bolander - Lord Provost of Glasgow - chats to Jim about her journey from Sweden to Glasgow's City Chambers
Jim & Pat's Glasgow West End Chat - Episode 26
Eva talks about her early life and education in Sweden and the significance of the Scandinavian pro-active approach to getting things done - which she's imported to her Scottish home and community in Partick.
Eva tells Jim Byrne how her love of the Bagpipes (she is a musician) brought her to Scotland and how the warmth of Scots kept her here. Listening to Eva's story you will understand how she ended up as Glasgow's Lord Provost and why she is perfectly suited for the role.
