      @@scothammond5736 The relationship with tourists is difficult. Many Amish and plain folks earn a good income by selling to tourists. Some Amish families host large dinners of tourists. However many tourists are rude. I am sure we could both tell of the horror stories. I have not been in Lancaster all of my life but all of my adult life.

      Now, I understand that the Amish use their horses for transportation, and I respect that. It's a beautiful, nostalgic way to get around. But there are times when I can't help but question their choice. I mean, have you seen the weather out there? Rain, snow, blistering heat - it doesn't matter. Those horses are out there, pulling their buggies with stoic determination. Meanwhile, I'm sitting in my cozy, climate-controlled car, sipping on a latte, and complaining about the temperature not being perfect. Kudos to those horses for enduring the elements while I complain about my morning coffee not being the right temperature.

      Another thing that amazes me about the Amish community is their craftsmanship. Have you ever seen the quality of their handmade furniture? It's like they have a secret woodworking recipe, while I struggle to put together an IKEA bookshelf without getting frustrated and accidentally creating a new abstract art piece. I can't even draw a straight line with a ruler, and here they are, creating beautiful, intricate pieces of art using just their hands and some basic tools. It's like they've unlocked the secret to life's "DIY for Dummies" book.

I remember one time in particular my family and I were at Walmart and an Amish family was checking out infront of us and the poor father of the group couldn’t figure out how to use his credit card ( bless his soul ) I swear my sisters and I had stood there for about 45 minutes while the employees tried to sort everything out for them with nothing but a smile on their face :) the Amish are extremely nice people once you actually meet a couple of them!

      But let's talk about their sense of style... or lack thereof. Now, I'm not a fashionista by any means, but the Amish make me feel like I walked straight out of a runway show at Milan Fashion Week. I mean, I get that their plain clothing is a part of their religious beliefs, but I can't help but wonder how they survive without expressing themselves through funky socks or a fabulous hat. It's like they've taken the saying "less is more" to a whole new level. Meanwhile, I'm over here trying to find the perfect outfit that says, "I'm stylish, but I also didn't spend two hours deciding what to wear."

      But here's my problem with the Amish people. They have this uncanny ability to make me feel incredibly lazy. I mean, have you ever seen an Amish person's to-do list? It's like an endless scroll of barn raisings, sewing, and farming. Meanwhile, my to-do list has "try to find matching socks" and "avoid eye contact with the overflowing laundry basket." Amish folks must wake up at the crack of dawn, ready to conquer the world, while I hit snooze on my alarm three times and debate whether I can skip brushing my teeth.

      But one thing I truly admire about the Amish community is their focus on family and community. They value spending time with their loved ones and building strong relationships, something most of us struggle with in this fast-paced, technology-driven world. They have family dinners, engage in meaningful conversations, and genuinely know their neighbors. Meanwhile, my family and I are sitting at the same dinner table, each one of us buried in our smartphones, scrolling through memes and TikTok videos. We're connected to the whole world, but disconnected from the people sitting right in front of us.

    First of all! Notification loved this vid from the start! The Amish seem very chill people! Amor desde Mexico 🇲🇽
    Edit: Thanks Drew for the heart, also did I mention that you inspire me to travel when I’m older? Also, when will you visit Mexico?
    Edit: no more heart haha!

      unfortunally most amish are racist and hate immigrant of all, they do not care if you are legal or not. Some are cool, but most they will be racist toward you.
