The Horse Men of the Himalayas

The local "horse men" are not wranglers or jackaroos, but luggers who'll carry your bags. They'll meet you at the bus stop and want to lug all your bags, but have some consideration and insist they share the load with another. For US$5 they'll kiss your feet!

Unique Suggestions: From my experience they're honest and hard-working. Be respectful.

Fun Alternatives: You can always carry your own bag!
