About Me, Yana Bostongirl
Hi, my name is Yana and I’m a writer/blogger.
I primarily write on Medium where I am one of the editors at the Coffee Times pub. I also host a column “Know Thyself” which is dedicated to spirituality, self-awareness, Empath/HSP experiences, and healing topics among others.
Though I am a personal story writer, I also enjoy exploring different styles of writing and my words have been published ✍️ in the big pubs on Medium such as The Start-Up, Better Humans, Curious, Invisible Illness, An Injustice, and Age of Awareness as well as on Vocal Media, NewsBreak, Quora, and most recently, Simily.
🦋5 fun facts about me🦋
I’m Multilingual - a couple of the more interesting ones being Sotho (clicking sounds hello) and Nigerian Pidgin English (Wetin be dat👀)
I enjoy teaching ESOL (English for speakers of other languages).
I have Nina Simone and a whole lot of the ’50s, ’60s & ’70s 🎵on replay.
I think there are some important life lessons that can be gleaned from stock trading😉
I once won a minor beauty pageant 👸🏻 and what it taught me can be summed up as follows - Beauty may get the (momentary) attention but it is the personality that gets the heart. So I quit chasing the former and embraced the latter👍
Find me on Twitter, NewsBreak, and Quora

Bonjour Yana.
From Medium to Simily :). I’ve just started. Hope it’s going well for you.
Ps. Thanks for the tip earlier.
Tbh Simily is a very slow go thus far….
I feel ya haha. I think more people will shoot over though when more people on Medium find out it exist.. in attempt to spread their earnings.
Maybe it’s like a snowball?
Lovely to know you are here.
You too!
Gutentag, Yana! I love 50’s, 60’s and 70’s music, but not exclusively (I like Bruno Mars, Pitbull, and “clean” versions of Pink songs). Plus, I love to daytrade on Robinhood. (yes, it’s small potatoes, I know–but so fun!)
Oh, and I love collecting “hello” and “good morning” greetins in different languages. Halito from Oklahoma (Choctaw)!
