I am here for Friends

About Me

Hello, good samaritan, my name is Nik. Mijn naam is Nik. Mon nom est Nik. Mein Name ist Nik. Il mio nome è Nik.

I want to meet people with something to add to the world or, at the very least, a plan. I want to be friends with those people.

I want to change the world. Sure, this may be completely out of my reach, but I've done more irresponsible things, right?

I love my friends and family. They are the greatest people I've had the privilege of meeting (well, meeting family is a given).

My Interests

Nothing in particular. Just stuff that lets me expand my horizon and infinite knowledge. Oh, and cooking.

I'd like to meet:

Everyone.
