Korntip Leamkoh and her two year-old daughter, Gitnmairee, try to keep cool in their tent after their home was destroyed by the 2004 Tsunami in the village of Hua Laem on Koh Lanta Island, Thailand. Leamkoh also lost her father who was attempting to save his fishing boat when the second wave came. The family lives in a tent provided by "World Vision" on the hill above their ocean-side town. Despite the heat and unusual conditions, both Leamkoh and her daughter wear a jibab, the traditional muslim head covering.
