Many of the locals here carry their goods with a strap that attaches around their forehead. It is called a “Namlo” and has been used for generations. Evidently it is a much more ergonomic way of balancing a heavy load. Somehow, I can’t picture being in NY with everyone carrying their laptops and such around with a “head pack,” but stranger things have happened.
