I live in a rural area in upstate New York with a large Amish community who own fairly large horse powered farms. They are quiet hard workers and people living in the area often hire them for they're excellent carpentry skills. The children are self taught in small Amish schools and most are multi lingualed speaking English and both traditional German and "new" German. They are all financially well of from selling their hand made furniture, carpenter services, produce, baked goods and cheese. They spend very little money because they are self sufficient and most of their money goes into supporting their community. Best neighbors in the world.

I have Amish family directly from Germany. They speak such a peculiar dialect, I am not sure you would understand them. It is even more different than some of the famous dialects like Swabian. But that is what is so fascinating about the Amish. They are such a uniquely German American people with their own unique culture and language.

The difference between people in China without electricity and the Amish is that the Amish aren't too poor to have electricity, they choose not to. So it's not exactly comparable. Most Amish people are middle class or at least comfortable.

They’re hardworking, their businesses have low overhead so they hardly ever fail, they sell artisanal and therefore unique and premium priced goods, they’re family owned and operated, they pay lower taxes, live modestly, buy a lot of property, they take care of their elders so they don’t dwindle family legacies on pricey assisted living or hospital stays...I suspect the Amish are quietly loaded. They see us whip around their carriages in a $35k BMW like we’re hot shit and think ‘pft, I own 180 acres of land’. People bitch and moan about how difficult making it in America is today, meanwhile they have a $1200 iPhone X and are wearing $400 Jordan’s. If you don’t care about being flashy, are willing to work hard, and want to build wealth, do what they do and within a few generations your family will be well-off, no degree or connections required. Just a willingness to live a bit modest and make some sacrifices. Save money and keep buying land and passing it down to the next generation.

@@StufiBuy Wealth is built over making conscious decisions based on practicality, not vanity and comfort. Like you said buying expensive stuff for vanity is a conscious decision to not actually save money and those decisions snowball, from small bad decisions they will add up into an avalanche of financial insecurity. The thing again is that in their culture, they have a foundation to not splurge their money pointlessly. If they want something, they make it. If they have left over money they invest it into an item that will retain value to at least some extent (land).

@KoinZell you also have to go where the jobs are and find where the cheap properties are located. If one stays in their hometown or city in spite of the fact that the jobs left 35 years ago then that’d be not pursuing opportunities. Its nice to set roots and live around family and community, exciting culture and the urbane metropolises that it inhabits; god bless you but don’t cry poor to me. As you said you make a choice, every decision and every second is a trade-off. In the past a whole family or even a whole community would pick up and leave to pursue wealth. You can go to nearly any state and buy land cheap, you can go to nearly any major city and find land cheap within a 40-50 minute drive outside of it. I used to live a 40 minute drive outside of the Bronx; 60+ acre lots, 4-5 bedroom farmhouses often with multiple barns, lakes, and streams included with property for $60-$80K. They may need some cosmetic work, nothing that can’t be done with KZread ‘how to’ videos and your own two hands, but they’ll have heat, running water and electricity.

Just like anywhere - there are good people and bad.... generally Amish are decent people and polite - but they are a very circumspect people, difficult to get "in" with them... once you show you are polite and respectful, they'll be same, if not, you'll get the "we'll see once..." which is them saying "no way in hell", but they are nice about it. They'll just ignore you if you piss them off, social shunning, which is their way. Overall, good hard working people and good to deal with.

The Amish are polite and are taught never to gossip. I have a few family history books which includes a lot of Amish family members and they outright refuse to write descriptions about their family members because of this rule. If you look at them, the women wear dresses all the way to their ankles, they wear veils, they do not show any part of their body, and the men do as well with plain overalls, suspenders, beards, and turtlenecks. The more polite and respectful ones probably did not want to say anything about her dress. But they most definitely noticed and observed it and probably silently passed judgement.

The Amish are a year round renaissance festival. Except, instead of the 15th century they chose the 19th. It’s a money making scheme as much as a religious and social construct. It’s the polar opposite of a hippie commune with the same result. It’s not hard to understand why they live the way they do. They are proud of it and they get to enjoy snippets of modern life in the form of materials technology and communication to some extent.

I find Vivi's English very good considering she learned it at the University in China and only used it there up until her visit to the USA as far as I have understood it. At any rate it is very obvious that she is very open to new cultures and knowledge and for that I have utmost respect.

I lived in a major city (London) my whole life and find it so sad that people are so disconnected from where their food comes from that they question whether blackberries they pick are edible. I recently came to work in Wiltshire (I also work with horses like I did back in London) and I forage more than the people here... As someone who has also experienced homelessness and poverty I think foraging is a very important skill to have!

I grew up in Indiana with Amish communities nearby. They are fantastic people, make some terrific things like furniture and even build houses. I commend them for their dedication and ethics.

Though I have no direct interaction with Amish, I greatly respect them. My interactions have been with a similar group: Mennonites. All are very courteous where I live in Southwest Virginia. The men are exceptional home builders (clean and precise), the women are exceptional at food preparation (the smell alone is gorgeous) and their children are very polite. I'm an HVAC service technician and our company does a lot of work for these people. I was personally doing some work at a school they created as an addition to one of their churches. While there, the children of varying ages referred to me as sir; "thank you sir," "excuse me sir," "my apologies, you first sir."

I tried to explain to my Amish neighbor about the fast growing prepper community and he said if it gets that bad good luck to the ones who don't have a good farm in six months when their supplies run out.

Vivi’ s English improved a lot. As a Chinese myself, I don’t fully agree with what vivid said in the video. Some young Chinese also chooses this kind of lifestyle. It’s on the news. Maybe because Vivi grew up in city. I grew up in the county side. I prefer country life. It’s quiet and peaceful.

Wang Joey...I agree with you, Vivi sounds like she only knows city life and doesn't realize that China has country life too. It's good to know you like country life and I imagine that the people are more friendly there also.

Wang Joey I came from Cambodia and you know where I landed? With the Mennonites in Kalona Iowa. They have Amish too and I was foster child at an ex-Amish couples who joined the Mennonites. I know some Deutch words because of this connection.

@@blizzardgumtree5012 Yes, I lived with the people for at least 10 years. It was on a farm out in the countryside. I have no qualm with them I participate in youth group at the church. They paid my way through high school, (private). I say I was a good boy and help me keep out of trouble by listening to their religion (beliefs). I can say that I'm very glad that I was amongst the Mennonites and not Catholics or Lutherans. This Mennonite group that I belong to was more conservatively minded, not participate in politics, or having TVs in their homes or going to movies. But this didn't keep people from doing what they want to do amongst the youth and adults.

Is the air in the country more breatheable out in the country in China verses the city? I just hear and learn that China is very polluted,including the air.

He calculated the 12 hour difference as being on the other side of the earth, then he went straight back to the farm and started digging a hole to China to confirm whether she was pulling his leg or not. 🤣🤣🤣

Aww, your wife is so sweet and nice! I've only recently stumbled upon ADVChina and this channel too and enjoy watching the videos. Keep up the good work!

The video I have been waiting for since the summer.

This is great! ❤️ this Vivi 🙌🏼

I just found your stuff. Completely in love with Vivi. You did well Mate!

Great to have a different perspective on things, Thanx 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏

You somehow managed to merge two of my weird cultural interests into one video. Well done. Now if you could get the leader of Scientology to meet Kim Jong-un, that would satiate my other bizarre cultures mingling fix. Thanks.

You guys are just as fun to watch in the U.S.! Can't wait to see where you visit next. 🙂

Vivi is a real charmer, and she knows how to ask interesting questions and make interesting observations. I like her so much!

You both do excellent content. This is better than tv.

The Amish shop at stores like Walmart. They also can have a phone but mounted outside. Each group has an elder who decides what is permissible within certain parameters. Wonderful Godly people.

I really really enjoyed this video

Great video! 👍

I love this episode! This is such a wacky part of America and I love that she got to visit such a diverse and curious part of America

Cool to see it from a Chinese perspective. Also, she makes great documentary presenter!

I love this video. Ohio Amish Country is such a beautiful area. I’ve been there twice.

I live near there and it does take your breath away a bit when you first see it on top of a hill. Never gets old.

Really great commentary and perspective coming from someone whose family strived to escape the pastural lifestyle. Also given Vivi's upbringing being taught the religion was bad to see folks whose lives revolve around it, it was really interesting to watch how uncomfortable she was, not as funny or entertaining, but really interesting from her programming (as many people raised from left are). I'm sure that the woman was used to getting those constant questions and contestations more than Vivi realized.

Enjoyed you tour Vivi. You two keep up your good work, as world ambassadors.

LOVE the Vivi focused episode! She seems so genuine with everyone she talks to :)

i come from southern germany and speak the palatinate dialect. it is really similar to Pennsylvania Dutch. the "gude morje" that he said is pretty much the same as i would say "good morning" in palatinate dialect. amish country feels a little like home i guess! :P

Would palatinate differ from glottal, then? As in, where within the mouth the stops and glides are formed?

"God morgon" in Swedish. As a native speaker of Swedish, and ability to speak simple and incorrect German, it probably wouldn't take too long before I could chat with the Amish in their language if I stayed with them. :-) Low German is closer to Swedish than what high German is. I'd think that anyone being able to speak Afrikaans ("South African Dutch") would feel right at home -- a qualified guess because not only is it a form of Dutch, but it has probably changed less than Dutch.

Most Pennsylvania Dutch actually originate from the Pfalz. Over 100 000 came from there to Pennsylvania to escape the counter Reformation. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mennonites#North_America

Palatinate is a geographical expression (with capital "P") - refers to Rheinland-Pfalz. Look it up.

Most of them were descendents of settlers from the old Palatinate, whose language degraded a bit. So Pennsylvania Dutch is basically that same dialect, with some changes.

Best thing I've watched all year

This was another great show. Vivi nailed it with the interview with the carriage driver. The teacher was one of these people who live on the defensive, just wanting to be ugly with curious people. This society is weird in the modern world. I think Vivi showed respect and care in how she created the video. Good Job, Happy Trails.

Aloha Matt, your wife makes me laugh! Because she is in a strange part of the United States for her. Aloha and Mahalo!

I love this type of video 💯💯

This is your nicest video yet C-Milk! Cheers mate!

I really like the interaction with the old man and would love to speak German to him. Where I come from you can also refer to a horse as both Gaul or Pferd.
