'I thought I was going to be buried alive'
We clung on to the tree and it hit us, everything went totally black...
British tourist Holly Cowie clung to a tree to cheat death as a giant brown cloud of dirt and dust came hurtling down the Nepalese valley she was trekking in after the earthquake hit on Saturday.
The 26 year old from London had arrived in Nepal ten days earlier as part of a three-month trip with her French boyfriend Axel Haudiquet, 29, when the earthquake struck as she walked through the popular Langtang Valley.
Accompanied by a guide, the couple had hiked 3,900ft through stunning scenery to Langtang Village where they visited one of the native tea houses before setting off back down.
Holly spent a night in the open, terrified of further rockfalls and aftershocks that might harm them, waiting for a helicopter to lift them to safety. She joins us to tell us more.
