Sure. I grew up with no electricity or running water.

@Munumbis Your parents were part of a lost and self absorbed generation. It is genuinely worthy of respect that you survived it and moved on. I may not agree with some of the conclusions you drew from the experience. But credit where it is due.😷

@Munumbis I say that's a pretty good story of your life you should write down. Your one rare less then few 1000 got see and live that life in modern times

@HumanEarth Several farms near where my Dad lives have been bought by Amish families, would not surprise me to see same there

Amish bought this modern farm house across the road from me and they tore it down for the land
The house was like 30 or 40 years old

Well, if you are forced to do something to survive, then yes, I could.
But I am too damned old to go without my AC and creature comforts let alone changing my entire wardrobe, and making 13 kids at the same time, so Hell No! I'd rather move into your barn and take pond baths and hose showers!

There are Amish communities around where I grew up. So I'm somewhat familiar with them. I could live like that if I had to, but I definitely would not want to.

Not a fan of the Amish culture tbh

Easily, but they would never accept me.
For a couple of weeks, maybe...

Not Amish, but maybe something else.

Mennonite, German Baptist, Hutterites, Bruderhof, Beachy Amish, Ultra-Orthodox Jews, Old Believers, Conservative Laestadians, Shakers, Rappites, Oneida, Nomadelfia, Anabaptist, or something else
