Who We Are
Hi, I’m Sophie Anders, the voice behind Secret America Travel. Born in Europe and driven by a deep curiosity for America’s hidden history, I created this site to share the untold stories of places that have shaped the country but remain hidden from the common traveler.
My passion is for those forgotten towns, secret spots, and historical sites that hold so much beauty and mystery — yet are often overlooked.
For me, it’s not just about the destinations; it’s about the journeys — the quiet corners, the untold stories, and the moments that make you stop and think. I travel with one goal in mind: to show you the real, unpolished America, the places where history lingers and adventure calls.

Why I Created This Site
While mainstream travel guides often focus on the usual spots, I created Secret America Travel to give travelers a chance to see the real, raw, and undiscovered beauty of the U.S.. This blog is for those who seek something deeper than the usual attractions. I believe that every place has a story worth telling, and I’m here to share those stories with you.
