A Journey into the Depths of the Forest: Exploring the Legend of Love

This excerpt describes a journey into the depths of a forest to uncover the legend of love, a tale that has captivated many for generations. The author, using the hashtag #PareAekTrip, invites readers to join them on a one-day exploration of this legendary love story. The journey involves visiting the site of the legend, engaging with the local community, and immersing oneself in the rich history and folklore surrounding this enduring tale.

As mentioned earlier, let's get to know the legendary love story and the owner of the tourist attraction and accommodation known as "Glen's Mine, Little House in the Big Forest." Aunt Glen is the wife of Uncle Somsak, the owner of the tin mine concession called Somsak Mine. He is Australian and has been living in Thailand for several decades. Aunt Glen was originally a teacher at Bangkok University and only visited the mine occasionally. However, when the tin mining business began to decline and Uncle Somsak became ill, Aunt Glen decided to resign to be with him during his final five years before he passed away. After Uncle Somsak's death, Aunt Glen said it was very difficult to get back on her feet. She renovated the Somsak Mine into Forest Glade Home and has a number of workers who have been with her to this day and have helped her run the resort.

The Enduring Love Story of "Auntie Glen"

The legend of "Auntie Glen" stems from her unwavering devotion to the Samsak Mine. This place embodies the dreams of her beloved husband and holds cherished memories of their most extraordinary moments together. As Auntie Glen herself declared, "I will remain at the Samsak Mine forever, for it is here that my dreams and memories intertwine."

This poignant tale aptly reflects the essence of "Little House on the Prairie," a testament to enduring love and unwavering commitment. Now, let us delve into the captivating wonders that await us at this remarkable haven, aptly named "Little House in the Big Forest."

Auntie Glen's Mine

Visitors to Aunt Glen's Mine are strictly prohibited from bringing their own vehicles unless they are high-clearance 4x4s driven by experienced off-roaders.

This sign is located at the entrance of the mine. It has a clear warning that only 4x4 vehicles are allowed.

From the sign at the entrance of the mine, it should be no more than 10 kilometers away, taking about an hour to travel. But it is an hour well worth it.

This should be about halfway there. 555

The sign is very clear: 4x4 vehicles only. Don't be stubborn and bring your Vios down here, because there's no way to turn around. You've been warned!

I opted for a local car rental service for 1,500 baht per day, which was an excellent value. The driver, pictured here, was exceptional.

The car will be available in both roofed and cage versions, depending on your preference.
(I think whichever one you're comfortable with, go for it 555) Judging from the looks, what do you think? 555

The wheels need to be quite large.

Why do you need big wheels? Try looking at the road surface in a still image.

This is considered very minor. The heavier parts could not be filmed (I had to hold onto the railing or I would have fallen).

Upon entering, you will be greeted by a cool and comfortable atmosphere with a high degree of privacy. The tranquility is undisturbed by the sounds of traffic, replaced instead by the natural sounds of a lush and vibrant environment.

Having elaborated extensively, let us shift our focus to visual storytelling.

Let's take a walk around the area first.

The sentence is already in English and does not require translation.





This is the accommodation for those who purchased the package with Aunt Glen's mine.



There are small waterfalls to cool off. You can sit and soak in the water if you like. No one will mind.


This is another vacation home with a truly natural atmosphere.


After walking around the area, those who are tired can enjoy snacks provided by Aunt Glen. When I went, I ate for free, but I don't know if it's usually free or not. 555


The renowned feather here is...


There are many different angles to explore. Feel free to walk around and enjoy the view.

Each corner seems to tell a story of the past, of events that have unfolded in this very place.




Some of the photos were taken by tourists who visited the area and left them as souvenirs for their next visit.

Here are the memories of Uncle and Aunt.

Aunt Glen, a woman who holds fast to love, is highly admirable.

Note: The original text uses informal language and repeated words for emphasis. The translation aims to convey the meaning in a more formal and concise way, while still capturing the sentiment of admiration.

Many people have come to this place. Why don't you join us?



From my visit, I am confident that everything that Aunt Glen and Uncle Somsak have done together is still etched in our memories for us to see to this day.

Although some things may appear old due to the passage of time, everything is truly valuable. **I sincerely commend this.**

And finally, before leaving, we had the opportunity to speak with the owner of "The Little House in the Big Forest" to record that we had arrived.

Note: Aunt Glen's mine offers overnight packages for purchase. The price is per person and includes transportation, a tour of Ban Ee Toh, and various other locations, including the Pilok mine. This is a great value for those looking for a relaxing getaway, and you won't be disappointed. Unfortunately, the accommodation was fully booked on the day of my visit, so I could only tour the mine.
