A lady who lost all villagers in earthquake video viral on social media

Kartok Lama is a disabled woman from Langtang whose small teashop was destroyed in Nepal’s earthquake. Her village was buried by an avalanche, but she is determined to rebuild.

In 2015, on April 25, Kartok Lama was in her teashop in the upper Langtang Valley. Nestled against a monolithic boulder which formed its back wall, her teashop in the Himalayas was a natural resting point for trekkers hiking through the 4,000 metre high valley she calls home. She had just finished filling three thermoses with tea when the earth began to shake.
