Adrian de Sauvanie was born in 1971 on the coast of Zealand in the Netherlands, but grew up and was educated entirely on the prairies of Southern Alberta in Canada, and is a citizen of both countries. After having lived for several years in Cannes in France as well, he lives in a rural location on the Zealandic coast.

He is a polymath, engaging in numerous interests, including passionately partaking in both writing (his first novel is featured on this website as well) and visual art (his photography is featured throughout the website, and his numerous prints are also displayed on a page dedicated to them). He loves and engages equally in intellectual and physical pursuits, and consciously leads and embraces a very simple life.

In every area Adrian de Sauvanie is best described using the term modern traditionalist. This describes everything from his aesthetic sense to his ideological stances.

He very blissfully leads a strictly reclusive lifestyle, and maintains his online presence in part to demonstrate that a reclusive nature is not at all the mental and social problem that it is made out to be, but that it is the only  proper way for inherent recluses to be productive and happy.
