literally anywhere nice (preferably exotic) to go where I can meet other people of my age (18-25, I'm 19)?
I'm not antisocial by any means but I want to go travelling by myself for the first time this summer and go somewhere where I will have an easy time making friends.

>Why Amsterdam specifically?
Well, it doesn't have to be there, but you'll find tons of young people at hostels in Amsterdam who just want to find a friend, do drugs, have sex, etc.

I left at 30 for a RTW trip and rarely felt out of place. Most people are mid-late 20s in hostels. Just stay out of 1st-world hostels and party hostels.

I've cycled all around Issyk-Kul, and while I can confirm that the lake and its surroundings are beyond awesome, Karakol town itself is a dump. I guess it serves as a good base for relaxing, but Choplon-Ata and Tamga are much better places to stay.
Then again, soviet shitholes are attractive to some people, believe it or not...

>have sex
And where are you going to do that? In the bunks with people sleeping near you? Disgusting.
