Phunjo Lama

I've met Phunjo in the year 2013 in remote village Tsum in Himalaya. She was very shy. She couldn't speak English. She had to ask her brother to translate each word, each setence...
She came in Slovenia in 2015, to visit me and to learn how our mountain rescuers use the helicopter and how they rescue. In just two years she learned so much English that we could easily talk. 
I was glad to be like a member of her family when I came in Kathmandu in the year 2015. At that time I could see how commited is she to reach her goals: to build a school in the remote village in Tsum valley, where she came from; to become the long-line rescuer and specially how commited is she to show the girls and women in Nepal, that they can dream their dreams and to empower them, that everything is possible. She trains very hard each day. The only women in a group of young fellows. 


Last year she reached the summit of Cho Oju. This days she came home from her second 8000+ m peak: Manaslu and next year goal is Everest. I am very proud on her.
She is collecting the contributions to reach all those goals. She prepared the fundraise webpage: https://www.gofundme.com/phunjo-lama-mountain-project . She would be glad if you help her to reach her goals with your contribution.
