Monica Malanco (Co-founder)
Born and raised in Mexico City, Monica is excited to have the opportunity to promote and share the beauty of her country through tours that connect people to the incredible culture, food, and art of Mexico. She has always been an avid adventure enthusiast, interested in travel and getting to know
other cultures, and values the way small boutique tours allow people to engage in and embrace a culture. Out of all the cities in Mexico, Oaxaca has a very special place in her heart - after just a few visits to Oaxaca, she fell in love with the architecture, people and beauty of the city so
much so that together with her husband she decided to wed in Oaxaca. Monica has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Marketing from the ITESM Tecnologico de Monterrey, and currently works as a Market Manager
for AeroMexico. Contact Monica - monica[at]mocadventures.com.
