Solo in Rural Pennsylvania 🇺🇸

Central Pennsylvania, a place most people drive past or fly over. In all of my travels, this is one of the most mixed-up zones: post-industrial towns, Amish, abandonment, beauty, and optimism. It's a place you can talk to almost anyone and learn a lot when you stop to give it attention. Join me today as we dive deep into this gem known as Central PA.

Thanks for watching!
Visit the places I stumbled upon on this road trip:

[tylerensminger]

This guy could explore every inch of the USA and I'd never get bored watching

[iamperfectlight]

Those two boys you met by the burning mine just warmed my heart. Adventurous, polite, driven and excited for life. Out doing boy stuff on the precipice of their youth looking out towards manhood with wonder. 16, newly driving and exploring the world.
Oh man, what an amazing time of life.
Those boys are going to do great things. ❤

[markhaynes]

I'm the gentleman you interviewed at shelll in Halifax. A buddy of mine came up to show me the video! I hope your trip in pa was interesting. Come back again!

[scottfamily-ep]

I am a lifelong Pennsylvanian (now live in Mechanicsburg where the window guy was from!) and my high school physics teacher was the mayor of Centralia in the early 2000’s! He and his mother stayed despite everyone leaving. PA is absolutely beautiful and a wonderful place to live and raise a family. Thank you for displaying it so well! Love your channel!

[fireuser]

I know you dont call yourself a journalist but genuinely you need some awards. Your channel shows America. This, is the America the world doesnt see

[jkiki]

I’m horrible at small talk… I admire your ability to talk to anybody you pass

[gpmoktx]

Those three boys cracked me up. Living the life, outdoors. "Talking to our buddies n stuff" that was great!

[KodieJames]

I live in lower PA in a similar area. Small town, quiet, surrounded by farms and Amish/Mennonite. Do you sometimes get a little bored? of course. But the sunsets and gorgeous along the mountains. People are nice and helpful. The food is amazing. Its a great place to live.

[christianguzek]

This type of journalism is refreshing in a world where it becomes increasingly rare to find genuine news or information. THANK YOU for all your work, really gives a person touch to every video!

[gordo]

An adopted Chinese Mennonite... that is a combination of life I did not expect. You learn something new everyday.

[dustybum]

I'm an Aussie so live pretty much on the other side of the world, but watching these videos gives me so much joy especially seeing you interact with kids just being kids and seeing how friendly people are. Fantastic.

[headder]

For a foreigner like me (I live in Poland). Your videos videos are a pure masterpiece. No one shows America like you do, especially the rural side of it. Please, keep it going! It's always a pure pleasure to watch.

[ramirolopez]

My Saturday's as a kid was waking up and watching cartoons. Now in my 50s it's waking up and watching @Peter Santenello

[Chunky]

Wow kids that actually speak to each other and communities that talk to each other. There is hope.

Amazing video as always.

[bjerkmannen]

As a Swede and European, a bit older, you give me a total different view of an America far from the picture we often see: a land filled with weapons, schoolshootings, a crazy president, uneducated people, a country balancing on the edge of a civil war. Your video made my heart warm and all my prejudices went away like smoke in the air. It all minds me about the small quiet village in a rural area of Sweden where I live. Friendly people, beautiful nature. Thank you for your work.

[craigstevens]

Im from PA and still live here. I caught myself grinning while watching your video and how you displayed PA in a manner that just makes me happy. Thanks to you and to the good people representing.

[pcatful]

It’s great to see kids who speak up and relate to people and even say “Have a nice day“ when you leave!

[Troutchaser]

When I envision America, this is what I see. Not the corporate, consumerism greed that we see from the cities or in general, today. I'm only 25, but I can relate so much to just having a quiet, peaceful life that doesn't get too complex by the news of the world. Keep of the great work, Peter!

[lucasmitchell]

South Central PA born and raised, I’ll never leave. I love what this state has to offer and the people who inhabit it.
