Home isn’t just a place — it’s a feeling. And sometimes, it’s a plate of tacos, a bowl of pozole, or the scent of freshly made tortillas that brings that feeling rushing back. When you move abroad, you know you’ll miss your family and friends... but no one tells you how much you'll crave the simple joy of your favorite dish.
At Paysend, we know how powerful those connections are. Whether it’s a comforting meal or sending money back home to support the people you love, it’s the small things that keep you close — no matter the distance. That’s why we make international money transfers simple, fast and affordable, so you can stay connected to the traditions (and the people) that matter most.
There’s something truly special about Mexican food — the flavor, the ritual, the memories. Even if you’ve emigrated to New York — with its global cuisine and endless dining options — nothing compares to the real taste of home. Sure, you might find a decent taco truck or even a mole on the menu, but unless you’re home, it’s never quite the same. And if you’ve got dietary restrictions? You’ll be happy to know that many traditional dishes are naturally wheat-free — so finding Mexican food that is gluten free isn’t as hard as it sounds.
Indian food is loved around the world for its bold spices, comforting curries and rich textures. But if you're dairy intolerant or lactose sensitive, some traditional dishes can feel off-limits — especially when ingredients like ghee, cream, yoghurt and paneer take centre stage. Thankfully, dairy-free Indian food is not only possible — it’s delicious. Many popular dishes like chana masala, aloo gobi, dal tadka, vegetable biryani and roti are naturally dairy-free or can easily be adapted. With a few smart swaps, you can enjoy all the flavour of Indian cuisine without the dairy.
If you move away from home, it’s often the little things that stay with you — the comforting smell of spices in a warm kitchen, or the first bite of a dish that reminds you of family and celebration. Food has a way of connecting us to where we come from, even when we’re far away.
For many people living abroad, staying connected means more than just a phone call — it’s the small rituals that bring comfort, like cooking a familiar meal or helping out back home when you can. Whether it’s a recipe passed down through generations or a quick money transfer to support family, those gestures keep us close.
When is the midterm election in the Philippines?
The 2025 Philippine midterm elections will take place on Monday, 13 May 2025.
Every three years, Filipinos head to the polls for national and local elections — and midterms are a key moment in the country’s democratic cycle. In 2025, voters will elect over 18,000 officials, including 12 Senators, the entire House of Representatives, and thousands of local government leaders.
If you’re living gluten-free — whether due to coeliac disease, gluten intolerance or simply personal choice — Mexican food might just be your new best friend. Gluten-free Mexican food includes traditional dishes made with corn-based ingredients like corn tortillas (not flour ones), tamales, rice, beans, grilled meats, fresh salsas, guacamole and slow-cooked stews. When made with care and authentic ingredients, many Mexican dishes are naturally gluten-free and packed with bold, vibrant flavour.
