The Everest base-camp trek takes days and over 100 kilometers of hiking. Along the journey, teahouses provide a hot meal and a warm bed. But the porters, who carry upwards of 45 kilograms each day, usually stay in separate lodging from the climbers who hire them. And at over 4,200 meters, getting anything to a teahouse, whether on back or by yak, is a logistical nightmare. So, what's it like inside these teahouses? And how do you run a business at the top of the world?

Not just here. In Japan while hiking, I came across a porter crew like this, carrying supplies up to the teahouse(s) containing ingredients and just loads of water. Granted their pace isn't the same as the Nepalese, but you just can't help but respect their commitment.

Five years ago I stayed in Everest area for two months, working for a NGO in a village two days down lukla. That village can now be (hardly) reached by car, but at that time the first road was three walking days away, so everything had to be carried on back or with donkey (yaks are only used higher). I talked to a lot of porters that were providing all the goods for the village and also for trekking lodges on the Everest trek. I can say that these people are absolute beast ! Most of the dude i talked to carried around 80kg, and some of then can go up to 110kg. I didn't believe them at first, but i was absolutely unable to move their bad at all lol. The most shocking day for me was when I talked to a dude that was carrying only beer bottles. It was easy to read the weight of one bottle and then calculate the complete load, which was 110kg, this absolutely blew my mind. The guy was 45, not skinny but definetely not super jacked...

@peoplez129 9 күн бұрын

The reason why the tea house doesn't charge to stay is because the porters wouldn't pay for beds, because they're saving all their money, and because if the tea house didn't have beds, they would just sit and sleep at the tables, even if the owner only meant it as a place to serve food. So with the way the culture is, the only reason why he has beds at all is because he knows they'd be crowding his place anyways. At that point it's all about attracting business by offering freebies, because free beds is almost impossible to compete against. It's not that the porters can't pay....they're making a ton of money and saving it for when the season is over. The less they spend, the more they'll go home with, so they spend as little as possible.

They tell me that more than one occasion their customers have not given them a single tip at the end of the long trek, even though they customarily order 4 items on the menu morning, noon and evening. I am incredulous about how Inconsiderate trekkers can be. That spend $100s $1000x of dollars to get here and then nickel and dime the people who actually get them to their destination. it’s appalling, particularly among young trekkers .

To be honest I don't know how much tipping helps them. They shouldn't rely on customers' generosity. Porters should get paid what they deserve as the base income. I do not tip my doctors or professors and same should happen here. They have to earn what they deserve without relying on me calculating how much their work is worth because who am I to decide what a fair wage is. I would much rather pay what they are worth without the guilt tripping of thinking they are giving me free labor if I don't tip enough. Tipping them is of course better than nothing, but only a patch to the actual problem.

15년 전 네팔 히말라야를 갔을 때 포터에게 지불한 비용과 지금 포터 비용과 별 차이가 없네요. 그 때 지불한 비용 중 반이 여행사에 넘어가는 거 보고 마음이 많이 아팠던 기억이 나요..
