Henning van Aswegen was born in Bloemfontein in 1955 and grew up in South Africa’s Orange Free State. After spending years living in the USA, Britain and France, Henning returned to South Africa and lives in the seaside village of Gordon’s Bay, on the Western Cape’s Eastern peninsula. From here Henning writes numerous blogs on country lifestyles (Gorgeous Gordon’s Bay & Knorrige Ou Oom), politics and espionage (Spioenmeesters) and children’s stories (101 Slaaptydstories).
Henning has two gorgeous daughters, Rène and Lindi, a now deceased old dog called Avo, an insane cat Fleurie and a wonderful wife, Belinda.
