Two lucky fans will have the opportunity to win a travel experience from Expedia to Mexico City and a meet-and-greet with the soccer star.
"I started playing soccer when I was ten years old, and since then I've been traveling the world. Traveling is part of my profession," said Ochoa. "I am proud to help Expedia introduce Mexico City to more people, to let travelers in on the secrets of the city that make it special and make it my home."

"We are always looking for ways to authentically engage with travelers and create memorable, exclusive travel experiences, and working with Memo to highlight his favorite spots brings that extra magic and inspiration when planning a trip to Mexico City," said Lauri Metrose, senior vice president of global PR and social media, Expedia Brands. "We couldn't be happier to partner with Memo, who embodies our 'Made to Travel' philosophy, to show off his hometown and the places most meaningful to him."
