It all began in Groningen, a picturesque Dutch city full of winding canals and cobblestone streets. A mutual friend and colleague had organized a dinner before the group continued their journey to the Meyer Werft Shipyard in Papenburg, Germany for the installation of the Norwegian Joy—but fate had plans far beyond show installs and travel itineraries. The rain had just finished falling, and Jack stood waiting on the cobblestones in the quiet silhouette of St. Martin’s Church, unaware that everything was about to change. When Nicholas turned the corner, and in that moment, something sparked. It wasn’t dramatic. It was quiet. Natural. The kind of beginning that doesn’t ask for attention, yet changes everything. What started as a simple introduction quickly became something extraordinary. From shared laughter to long conversations, from airports to late nights of rhinestones, it wasn’t long before they realized this was the beginning of forever. And now, here we are—writing the next chapter with you.
