Carnival in Brazil is one of the most famous celebrations in the world – a spectacular mix of music, dance, tradition and community spirit. Held every year in the days leading up to Lent, Carnival is a moment when streets fill with vibrant parades, dazzling costumes and the infectious energy of samba.<\/p>
Whether in Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, São Paulo or Recife, each region of Brazil brings its unique style to the festival, making it a deeply rooted cultural tradition. For those living abroad, staying connected to family and friends during Carnival is essential. With Paysend, you can support your loved ones back home, helping them make the most of this unforgettable celebration.<\/p>
The history behind Brazil’s Carnival<\/h2>
Carnival’s origins trace back to European festivals brought to Brazil by Portuguese settlers in the 17th century. These celebrations were inspired by Catholic traditions, marking the last days of indulgence before Lent’s fasting period.<\/p>
Over time, African, Indigenous and Portuguese influences merged to create the unique Brazilian Carnival we know today. The introduction of samba – a music and dance style with deep African roots – became a defining feature, turning Carnival into the spectacular, rhythmic event it is today.<\/p>
Key Carnival celebrations across Brazil<\/h2>
Rio de Janeiro:<\/strong> Home to the world-famous Sambadrome parades, where top samba schools compete in elaborate floats and performances.<\/li>
Salvador:<\/strong> Known for its electric street parties, with massive crowds following live music trucks.<\/li>
Recife & Olinda: <\/strong>Famous for frevo dancing and massive street parades, featuring the iconic giant puppets.<\/li>
São Paulo: <\/strong>Hosts Sambadrome parades similar to Rio but with its own distinct flair and local traditions.<\/li><\/ul>
Carnival is more than just a party – it’s a cultural showcase that brings communities together, honoring Brazil’s history, music and artistic flair.<\/p>
Why sending money home matters during Carnival<\/h2>
For many, Carnival is a time of family, unity and celebration, but it can also bring extra costs. If you have loved ones in Brazil, a little financial support can help them enjoy the festivities to the fullest.<\/p>

Despite the summer months coming to a close in the Northern hemisphere, the heat and dryness of this season continues. With it comes the threat of natural disasters, such as tsunamis, hurricanes, fires and more, affecting countries around the world.
As we hear about record breaking heat waves in the US and Canada and tropical storms and hurricanes impacting countries along the coast, you may want to prepare in case you or your loved ones are impacted by a natural disaster.
Continue reading for tips on how to stay safe and help loved ones that may be affected this season.
What to have on hand to stay prepared for a natural disaster:
If you are at risk of personally experiencing a natural disaster, you may want to have the following items at the ready in case of an emergency:
First-aid kit to attend to potential physical injury
Gas - whether for your car in the case of evacuation or for a generator in case of power outages
Important documents stored in a waterproof container in the event of flooding
Non-perishable food items that can be stored and eaten with minimal cooling or heat
Charged electronic devices and flashlights, as well as backup batteries, in the case of power outages
Battery-powered radio to stay up to date on disaster guidance if signal or Internet is not readily available on your electronic devices
Clean or filtered water in case local water supply is impacted in any way
How digital money transfers help support loved ones affected by a natural disaster, even from afar:
If you have friends and family living in another country at risk or that have experienced a natural disaster, you can still lend a hand even at a distance. For instance, after a natural disaster occurs, it is not always possible to fly into an affected city or country to offer physical support to those in need, but with digital money transfers, you can send loved ones funds to help rebuild, purchase food or supplies, and more.
At Paysend, we want to make it simple and fast for you to support your loved ones going through hard times. That’s why we’ve made it possible for you to transfer money in the palm of your hand through a smartphone or laptop. Our transfers cost just $2 from the US and often arrive to your recipient in close to real-time.
