Hey everyone,

Long time since I've been active, sorry about that. I was fairly active on the Yahoo group, but I got back into college and, for a long time, I didn't have the time to keep in any sort of contact.

Anyway, I graduated from college again and I've been working in China. I'm in the states until the end of the month and I'd like some advice to resolve a little dilemma I'm facing.

I've been living in China for a year now, and I haven't seen any wet shaves. From what I see, it doesn't happen there. Does anyone have some idea for why? I have found that the water doesn't create a very good foam, regardless of the soap you choose. I know that the water there is similar to water in other countries members had visited, so I thought I would reach out for some advise.

I really don't want to leave my razors here, or sell them, if I can avoid it but, if I can get some tips on what others have done to get a good lather with the lower quality of water, I would be inclined to take them with me instead of selling them, and I would be very much grateful for the tips.

Thanks!
