I would strongly suggest before taking that big of a leap that you first read as many books and watch as many videos on the Amish as possible. Then, if you are still interested at that point, move to an Amish community. You will be held at arms length for quite some time, I imagine. From what I know about the Amish, you would have to dress like them, act like them and attend church with them for at least a year or more before you would even be considered for membership.
