I was fourteen when I carried my first load as a porter in the Annapurna region. I earned eighty rupees a day and carried thirty-five kilos on my back. On that first trek, a client gave me a hundred-dollar tip. I had never seen that much money before, and it made me think I could build my life in these mountains.
