Growing up in Kathmandu, Nepal's capital, Tenzin Yeshi loved the buzz of excitement as Losar, the New Year celebration, approached in her Tibetan community. Ms. Yeshi recalls how nomadic traders, clad in heavy wool coats, would start gathering around one of the city's largest stupas, or Buddhist monuments, to sell yak meat. It was one of those little signs that made you know Losar was coming, she said.
