Vegan breakfast fail? Swedish cathedral win. Come along as Magnus and I explore Härnösand the morning after the spectacular musical Höga Kusten — with gin, fountains, and spiritual surprises on the way!
We wake up at the beautiful and modern Härnö Gin Hotel in Härnösand, a coastal town in northern Sweden known for its scenic views and cultural charm. Spirits were high... until breakfast. As a vegan, I was genuinely looking forward to seeing what a stylish hotel could offer. Unfortunately, the "vegan options" amounted to plant-based yoghurt and some margarine. No hummus, no warm dishes, no fresh ideas. Especially frustrating since I contacted them in advance. It’s 2025. Do better.
Still, we make the most of our morning. 🌥️
We stroll to the small island next to the hotel, where there's a curious little fountain that looks like it belongs in a Wes Anderson film. Then it’s off to H&M to upgrade our iPhone covers (priorities!) before popping into Systembolaget to scout for Hernö Gin—locally made and award-winning. We skip buying it for now... but we’ll be back. 😎
Then, the surprise of the day: Härnösands domkyrka. Sweden’s smallest cathedral—and perhaps its most charming. Completed in 1846 after a series of devastating fires, this neoclassical gem was designed by Johan Adolf Hawerman and is filled with spiritual elegance. The light-filled interior, the ornate organ, the salvaged 17th-century altarpiece, and even the crypt all speak of history, resilience, and beauty. It’s an unexpectedly serene stop, and we were so glad we made the time.
With our bags packed but left behind at the hotel for convenience (shoutout to late trains), we wrap up this mini adventure with lighter hearts and heavier phones filled with footage 📱💼💕
Thank you for following my Swedish summer adventures, where theatre meets travel, and not every breakfast is a dream 😅
