Editors Note
When I first created DayTrippen, no other websites provided day trip information for Southern California. However, today, there are hundreds of such sites. Some of these websites have broadened their offerings, but many have just replicated the content and concepts from DayTrippen.
How Daytrippen started
When my son was around five years old, he used to look forward to doing something or going somewhere each weekend. During that time, no internet-based resources were available for day trips. Therefore, I had to constantly search for novel and captivating places for us to visit.
Every Monday, when I returned to work, I used to share the experiences of my weekend day trips with my colleagues. One day, my boss suggested I write a book about these trips, but I was uninterested. Instead, I was intrigued by the internet’s connectivity and decided to establish Daytrippen.com as a resource for people looking for things to do and places to go for one day.
