Haven't posted in a while, although I did a few mediocre shaves since we've arrived at Liebenstein. The internship is so-so; tons of interesting medical stuff but not much to do for me. It was only the second day though, I have hope that I'll become better accustomed to everything.

1 pass head shave, nice smooth dome. I brought the brush, black plastic Wilkinson Classic razor and the blades with me, but only bought the Speick cream today. I had an awful brushless cream before and it just didn't do anything justice. Today was much better and way more comfortable...
