The Only Vietnamese Girl Who Survived The Snowstorm In The Himalayas Recounted The Escape Story

That is Vo Thi My Linh, 25 years old. In her Facebook post, My Linh said that there were two Vietnamese in the mountain climbing group: she and another young man, both safe. She also doubts the number of deaths will be higher than the information posted. Below, we quote the process of My Linh coping with a snowstorm to return safely. Before I tell this story, I want to clarify some information as follows: An article on Vnexpress cites the source AFP said that 29 people died, including 1 Vietnamese victim died

. Most of my friends after reading the article thought I was a Vietnamese victim. Please be sure again, right now my health is fine. The night before, I was temporarily blind because I didn't wear sunglasses when I was too close to the sun when I was on the mountain top Today my eyes are calm again, only red and a bit painful.



In addition, I also know another Vietnamese along the line with me. His name is Phong, his family lives in Saigon but lives and works in Singapore, he is still healthy. I hope the information that a Vietnamese person dies is just some mistake. Because every time I stop at the stops to eat, sleep and rest, people ask each other, I tell me that I'm Vietnamese, all tell me that I am a rare Vietnamese girl joining this dangerous journey. Even through the mountain climbing permit inspection stations, I often chat with the policemen here, take pictures with them, they tell me to be the first Vietnamese girl they met. a blizzard appears. The photo is provided by the character, but I will work with the police to confirm the identity of this Vietnamese victim Any friends who have friends or relatives trekking at this moment but do not know their fate please contact me by phone number in Nepal: 977 9805414080 or viber phone number: 84937686994.



More than anyone I wish that no Vietnamese victims died in the last blizzard. The 29 dead information that AFP gave is only temporary information on the first day of the snowstorm. On June 15, I returned safely. Early on the morning of June 16, before getting on the bus back to the capital, Kathmandu, I enlisted to work with some rescue police in Muktinath village. They say 35 bodies have been searched so far, one buried in the snow. However, based on my photos of the death victims I met on the way down the mountain, there were more deaths than that, even I estimate about one third of the Among the climbers who died, if 168 were climbing that day, at least 60 would have died. However, finding the body of the temporary victim has been difficult because the thick patches of snow buried the bodies. I will give the most accurate death number as soon as the Nepal police have results.



Photos provided by the character, you will wonder why the storm is coming and I still take pictures. The fact that I took pictures even when a storm came and photographed bodies was due to my 5-year experience as a reporter. The very day after the storm passed, I and a few friends went down the mountain and also decided to take some photos of the moment at the top of Thorung La Pass. Because we ourselves do not know where our fate is going, whether we successfully descended the mountain or not. I simply thought that, if I was in trouble, the police who picked up my camera would understand what happened on my journey, and now what happened during the storm: Some of my Facebook followers all know I started the mountain climbing on October 6 with Tommy from Indonesia and Pavel from Russia. In the beginning it should be just me and Tom, the two of them planned to leave on October 1. But then I got a message from Pavel on facebook that he wanted to join. So we both decided to wait for Pavel and didn't think this delay would lead to a big event.



On October 6 we started our climb. Pavel accompanied us for 2 days when he caught a cold and decided to return to Pokhara because catching a cold was very dangerous to his life while climbing. Tom and I were walking on the streets and on October 13, we reached High Camp at the height of 4833m. A big adventure for me is that because we save money, we do not hire guides and do not rent porters. My Linh chooses a dangerous route when not hiring guides. porters and local people. Since this is the climbing season in Nepal, Tom and I just need to follow the other mountain groups. In terms of luggage, Tom and I each have to carry backpacks weighing about 8kg each.



Carrying a backpack weighing 8kg for dozens of days and having to climb a mountain pass is not easy for a small person like me. So there were times when it was so heavy, I threw out a few clothes. After arriving at High Camp, Tom had a headache, so he wanted to stay at High Camp for a day and then conquered his destination, Thorung La Pass at the height of 5416m..
