Is there an opportunity to bring supplies or clothing for the porters or for children?
Wonderful! If you have extra clothing or shoes/boots for the porters, be sure to bring them and let your guide know that you have them. They can be given to the porters before or after the trek (at the office of the outfitter). If you have school supplies or small toys for children, you can also ask any of your guides for help in distributing them. They are good to give out on visits to schools or orphanages. A pen or small ball is a nice “reimbursement” for a picture taken!
