This was quite a rare experience for the average person, allowing us to compare the features of rooms at different levels all at once. Among the 16 of us were bloggers from Hong Kong, Malaysia and the Philippines, and we were each accommodated in different hotels.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-113082\" title=\"Landmark Village Hotel 1\" src=\"https:\/\/jonathansin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/landmark-village-hotel-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" \/><br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nOn the first day, after dropping off my luggage at the hotel, I took a pre-arranged minibus to another hotel, the Landmark Village Hotel, for a welcome dinner by the pool. Landmark Village Hotel is situated in the Bugis district of the city centre, close to Arab Street and Little India with their rich Middle Eastern and Indian flavours, and is also right next to Bugis MRT Station, which is really very convenient.<br \/>\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/maps.google.com.hk\/maps?q=singapore+Bugis&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=Bugis&amp;gl=hk&amp;t=m&amp;brcurrent=3\uff0c0x0:0x0\uff0c0&amp;ll=1.300652\uff0c103.856249&amp;spn=0.030033\uff0c0.053215&amp;z=14&amp;output=embed\" width=\"620\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<small><br \/>\n<\/small><br \/>\n\u25bcI arrived at the hotel just after six, a bit earlier than expected, so I was able to enjoy the romance by the pool all on my own. The organisers had laid out some fruit for us, so naturally I grabbed a young coconut straight away and sat by the pool splashing about XDDDD<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-113083\" title=\"Landmark Village Hotel 2\" src=\"https:\/\/jonathansin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/landmark-village-hotel-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jonathansin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/landmark-village-hotel-2.png 620w, https:\/\/jonathansin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/landmark-village-hotel-2-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><br \/>\n\u25bcThe organisers had arranged two little activities for everyone. One was traditional Indian henna art. I didn\u2019t take part at first because I knew I wasn\u2019t very good at it, but my friends were having such a brilliant time that I ended up getting one done too. My friend said the one on my hand looked like a hairy spider. I don\u2019t dare show it to anyone \ud83d\ude41<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-113084\" title=\"Landmark Village Hotel 3\" src=\"https:\/\/jonathansin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/landmark-village-hotel-3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" \/><br \/>\n\u25bcThere was also a body scan; I didn\u2019t take part in that, but I saw the photo posted by that lovely Singaporean blogger, and it looked quite impressive.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-113085\" title=\"Landmark Village Hotel 4\" src=\"https:\/\/jonathansin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/landmark-village-hotel-4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" \/><br \/>\n\u25bcApart from the event itself, the rest of the time was spent socialising, getting to know each other and discovering the best places to eat and things to do in each other\u2019s cities, as well as chatting about the current state of the blogging scene. This was the part I valued most, and it was the most rewarding few hours of the trip.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-113086\" title=\"Landmark Village Hotel 5\" src=\"https:\/\/jonathansin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/landmark-village-hotel-5.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" \/><br \/>\n\u25bcThe organisers had thoughtfully arranged for some durian for everyone to try. Although I love durian, I was worried that not everyone might like the taste, so I didn\u2019t have any, to avoid things getting a bit awkward during the chat. I heard it was the D24 variety, imported from Malaysia to Singapore, and incredibly rich and fragrant. What a shame! What a shame! Next time, I\u2019ll just go ahead and eat it, regardless of what others think.
