13-year-old Indian girl, raised in poverty as the daughter of farm workers, has become the youngest person to reach Mount Everest’s summit.
Malavath Poorna, who lives in a small tribal village and learned to climb at her school, completed the dangerous Himalayan mountaineering journey on May 25 at the age of 13 years, 11 months – just one month younger than the previous record-setter, an American boy who made the climb in 2010, the BBC reports.
Her record-breaking climb comes just a month after 16 sherpa guides died in the famed peak’s deadliest avalanche ever.
“When I reached the top, I felt too much emotion, too much joy,” the teen tells PEOPLE via phone as she describes being overcome with awe after scaling the world’s highest mountain, at 29,029 feet. “All around me, beauty – mountains, sunshine, clouds. I could feel God there. I was grateful and too happy.”
A major challenge of the expedition, she says, was not the cold or discomfort but the packaged food they had to consume.
“I did not like its smell or taste,” she explained. “I [wanted] to go home and eat my mother’s food.”
