I’ll have to ask her. But I’d assume the first step would finding the nearest embassy of your country and ask them for help.
2004 is Aceh earthquake right? The fact that the earthquake was so strong the tsunami reached another country is mind-blowing to me…

It hit several countries. A couple of hundred people died in Somalia.
