Carrying goods on their heads start early

As I walk around town and in the countryside, I am amazed at the variety of different things that the African carry on their heads – from a simple platter with peeled oranges to sewing machines and tables. They learn while they are young and get such balance. Some use a cloth on their head to help with the balance, but others without. I can’t balance a book on my head and walk any distance.
