    Ep 25 - Our foreign correspondent with Linnea Dunne

    Did you know that Swede's lived in other countries, too? LOL, yes of course you did. But, sometimes it's easy to forget that there is another side to being Swede-ish. I'm delighted to welcome Linnea Dunne, author, journalist, columnist and general all-round wordsmith, to the Swede-ish podcast. Originally from Sweden, Linnea now lives in Ireland.

Head to our weblink to find all the ways to read Linnea's work and read more.
