Harry - our Guide



Harry is a Sikh descended from his Great Grandfather who went to Myanmar to build the railways and stayed. Harry was superb, his turban caused a few problems in the sun and rain, but he adapted his hat and added a plastic bag to keep his hair dry.
The gold blanket was sent by a dutch trekker and caused loads of amusement with all the hill tribe people - they thought he looked like a temple (paya)

Harry took us through all the villages and we got a chance to wander in to houses, chat to people, shelter from the terrible rain and basically have a brilliant time. The people were so friendly.
