Hawai'i In-Destination Expert, Mexico Specialist

Aloha, my name is Monica and I am a mother of 4. I come from a large immigrant family of indigenous origins. I love cooking, sewing, gardening, and exploring wherever I go. I have been in the travel business since 2022 and have previous experience with planning and booking travel for myself, family, and friends over the span of 25+ years. I have worked extensively in customer service my entire adult life in the fields of health care, education, military, and retail sales. I am a natural multitasker, detail oriented, and take pride in my work. I am very passionate about helping people realize their travel goals. If I learned anything from COVID, it is that we truly only have ONE life to live. I believe passionately that no level of education can truly give us the life experiences and memories that we make from traveling. I especially enjoy authentic cultural experiences and love to explore and personally connect to the culture and history of places I visit. There is so much out there to see and explore for ourselves and so many opportunities to do it.

    Monica made our cruise stress-free and enjoyable!
    Reviewed By Pu'u - Waimanalo, Hawaii | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
    We transferred our cruise booking to Monica at Shorty's Wanderlust for personalized service, and the process was seamless. Monica communicated effectively and resolved issues with our account balance and transactions, spending significant time with the cruise line. She also secured a refund and extra incentives when our excursion was changed.

    Before the cruise, Monica provided a comprehensive packing checklist and valuable tips. During the cruise, we enjoyed treats and a special birthday dessert for my husband.

    Monica's dedication made our vacation stress-free and enjoyable. We highly recommend her and Shorty's Wanderlust!

    "Mahalo to you and your husband for entrusting me with servicing your cruise and sticking it out with me when things got rocky! Your support means the world to me! I am so happy to have been a part of this journey with you and enjoyed your postings throughout your trip. I love the Honu trend you started, and I bet many more will follow with this new tradition. Your pictures from formal night came out gorgeous! I look forward to our next adventure! Aloha"
