“Father carried weights like most of the villagers. These were men and entire villages of porters.They carried goods from China to Nepal. And walked the forest for days and days. Entering Barabise from Dolakha. Heavy weights you cannot imagine, like most of us Nepalis. I have done the same for a long time. Carrying weights to Nepal and carrying weights in Arab. Carrying weights up hills and mountains. So some tin sheets are nothing.” (Chin Bahadur Thapa, Shyamsadhu, Gumthang 7, Sindhupalchowk)
