Fein-aithne

Exploring the identities of Gaels living on the other side of the new European border. Presenter Coinneach Smith visits Eòghan Mitchison in Brussels this episode of a six-part series. A Scottish-Irish Gael living and working in Brussels, brought up in Italy, and fluent in multiple European languages, Eòghan shows us the many faces of Europe’s capital. From the complexities of the European Commission, to the Belgian Congolese caterpillar cuisine sold in an Indian food market, there’s plenty to learn – all the while reflecting on Eòghan’s own identity as a Gael, a Scot, and a European in a changing Europe.
