‘I cannot think of going home. I am afraid an earthquake will hit us again’

Shobha Maharjan | Lalitpur

“I haven’t gone back home since the earthquake damaged our house. I asked others to take out my belongings and bring them to me because I am scared of returning. I have a family of eight and now we all live in a poultry shed. Me and my husband had built it in March. We were planning to bring in some chickens. I cannot think of going home now. I am afraid an earthquake will hit us again.”
