Hello, my name is Mervat. I am from Texas but currently teaching English in Madrid. By the way I have a blog and feel free to check it out!

I hope you enjoy reading about my experiences while teaching abroad in Spain. I graduated from the University of North Texas and not long after I started this amazing journey. There is not a day that goes by that I regret having made this decision because I’m getting to know more and more about myself as I am pushed outside my comfort zone. If you weren’t raised in good old Terrell, Texas you probably have no idea where it is. Well it’s a small town located east of Dallas and it’s the place I call home. The truth is I’m just a small town girl at heart with ambitions to see the world. So when I have finally seen everything that I want to see and ready to settle down somewhere, there is no doubt in my mind that you won’t find me there.
