I’m not sure if many of you know my cultural background but I come from a really diverse family. I was born in London England, raised in Atlanta Ga and I’m half Nigerian and half Ghanaian. It’s always a mouthful when people ask me where I’m from, lol… because culturally most people are asking where your people come from. So for me, I have to give that full answer because it’s who I am.  One of the best parts of having a multicultural family, is knowing that you have loved ones all over the place.  Before I came to America I was partially raised by my aunts in England, so for me I always felt like I had many mothers growing up.

Show Your Mom and Mothers Love How Much You Care With The Gift of Flowers!

Mother’s Day in England is actually back in March so I make sure to tell all the mums or moms in my life how much I love them and show them how much I care.  With my family being all over the world; Italy, Germany, Nigeria, Ghana, England, and so on. I’ve found ways to stay in touch easily as well as be able to transfer funds in a secure and convenient way.  PayPal has been a major tool for my family and me since I was 16 years old. We would use it for sending birthday presents, helping with bills, just sending money to show you care. Recently my MummyRose just sent me money on Easter because she knew I wouldn’t be able to make it home to be with family, so it was her way of buying me Easter Dinner lol. Today, the primarily cash-based system of sending money abroad can be time-consuming, insecure and expensive, but Xoom offers a secure, safe and fast alternative. Xoom has a popular mobile app that is used for two-thirds of its transactions. We all keep our phones on our hip like lifelines, why not use it to end money to loved ones or Mom for Mother’s Day. With the release of Xoom, a PayPal service, sending money to loved ones overseas has become even easier and more secure.

Xoom can be used for a variety of things including; sending money, reloading phone airtime, and paying bills overseas from the USA.  It makes for the perfect app for taking care of loved ones or mom from afar. In so many cultures kids grow older and are taking care of all their parents financial responsibilities, whether they live the same country or abroad. I know many people will find Xoom to be a wonderful addition to their much needed apps.

Sending money is ALWAYS a great gift option, but if you’re still looking for the perfect gift for the special mom in your life, PayPal is offering Mother’s Day shopping deals from merchants like Macy’s and Kiehls at PayPal.com/MothersDay, or you can shop the PayPal Digital Gifts store so Mom can pick out something that she’s sure to love!
