One of the best parts about living the super affiliate lifestyle is traveling to exotic places. And Bermuda is definitely one of those places.
Take an tiny island with hilly terrain, rain forest-like trees and vegetation, homes and buildings painted in a beautiful array of colors. Now surround that with shimmering blue waters full of breathtaking coral and fish. Now add a laid back island culture with friendly people and great food.
Take all of that together and you get Bermuda.
The first night we checked into the Fairmont Hamilton Princess, one of the top hotels on the island. Our room costs a whopping $450/night.
Our room has a balcony with a stunning view of the harbor. Check it out…
On the next day, which was a Friday, Shilpi and I went snorkeling in Church Bay. The waters where choppy, but we still saw lots of fish. In fact, you can walk around in shallow water and see fish swimming around your feet.
It was pretty incredible!
After getting cut up after stepping on some razor sharp rocks in Church Bay, we decided to take 2 days off and do some land activities.
So on Saturday we went horseback riding!
There was a group of about 6 of us all on horseback. Now, our guide told us the horses were very tame, and would walk in a single file line behind each other, quietly and peacefully.
Right.
Everything was going fine in the beginning. We went through some steep terrain (not exactly for beginners, it was my first time!) Then we strolled through some residential areas, finally we cut through a park and walked along the beach.
It was a fun ride, but then it got a little more exciting…
On our way back from the beach something in the scrubs frightened some of the horses. One horse, in a panic started galloping, the horse behind it followed.
There was another horse that was so frightened that it knocked its lady rider off!! Thankfully the lady was okay, she hit the sand which cushioned her fall.
After that, my wife’s horse tried to pick a fight with the horse behind it, and almost knocked my wife off the horse!
If you think that’s too much excitement for one trip, it’s get better…
In the next post I’ll talk about mopeding like a wild man around the island, helmet diving, afternoon tea time, parasailing and some important lessons about affiliate marketing.
So far, it sounds like a ton of fun. I’m looking forward to hearing more about it and seeing more pictures.
First off I wanted to thank you for the blog it is great and not a day goes by that I do not learn something. 2nd I would like to welcome you to Bermuda. I divide my time between Baltimore and Bermuda where I call home. Glad you had a great time.

Great post Amit. I like the “Lifestyle” posts. Even though they are not AM-related, they sure are a great source of motivation for those who are starting in this business.
Looking forward to part 2!
Awesome post and vacation. I can related to you on the horseback riding. When my girlfriend and I went to Mexico we did horseback riding through the mountains and forest. It was really neat, but you couldn’t see anything once it got dark. Lots of the horses were biting at others too!
