In the US military you have to stay clean shaven unless you have medical exemption. The vast majority of those medical exemptions are for poc because of the irritation daily shaving causes certain hair types. "Beardos" in the military aren't white.

Belgrade Serbia. It's the perfect size, not crowded but always busy, big enough that it has everything you could want small enough you can get anywhere in under an hour on free public transportation. The food is great and cheap and there's plenty of places open all night. Lots of green space and a couple huge parks.
