Welcome to SRP!
There are plenty of long discussions in older posts about the post shave strop/don't strop issue. I don't think any definite conclusion has been found. I've tried it both ways and haven't noticed a difference. I settled on stropping the blade after the shave to help dry out any water left in the micro teeth because I know that rust will develop for certain.
You can start practicing stropping with a butter knife on your pants leg to get into rhythm until your strop arrives.
