Amish

 Amish are a group of Christians who have a special life style, they don’t use Electricity, car or phone. They have their own society, school, church and etc.

 Their history belonged to nearly 4oo years ago, they were followers of a man, whose name was Ammann, they were European who lived in some areas of Netherland and Germany, but they immigrated to the US, so you see more than 100,000 Amish in different parts of US. Their children speak Germany before going to school, but at school they learn English .

  My friends and I had this opportunity to visit them, they have their own vehicles which is nice carts (wagons). They are farmers who make their cloths, teach their students and having a really peaceful life. They kindly accept us in their houses and showed us the way they live.

 The family which accepted us had 6 beautiful daughters, I told their Mom, what a cute girls you have. ”God created them to this beauty, we should thank God” the mom answered.

 They mostly don’t like taking photos of their faces, they believe it is a kind of worship, in addition to this; their children’s dull don’t have any faces!

I think Amish farmers’ life was full of joy, love and peace.
