A collection of Mary Anna's top tips:

- It's not warm
- Avoid cotton, rubbish when you sweat
- Beware matcho pilgrims who are competative
- Avoid people who sponge, whose lives are composed of travelling the world and such routes on no money
- Learn some songs before you go
- Listen to your body
- Take a large mug you can use as a bowl
- Don't listen to the advice of others, do it your way
- No foot no horse, lavish love on your feet.
