Photo- @andy_bardon /// A portrait of Pemba Phuti Sherpa from the village of Phortse, which resides high in the Himalayan mountains of Nepal. When I met Pemba she was hard at work harvesting potatoes in her field before the deep winter freeze. Her husband is a high altitude porter and was working in the higher peaks of the Himalaya, so Pemba handled the day to day responsibilities of their moutain home. /// Shot on assignment for @Natgeo /// Please follow @andy_bardon for more images from around the globe #portrait #nepal #travel
