WARNING! I know you are absolutely perfectly well intended but this might be shockingly bad advice and can very easily make you lose access to your money! It depends mostly on what country you use for the destination paypal account but for example for US (and surely for other) here is what happens: you send very happily the money and then you can do nothing with them!!! The default "sending limit" is ZERO and you can lift it ONLY by adding a (local) bank account!!! You can't send money anywhere, you can't buy anything with them, anything you sent to the destination foreign account is just stuck forever!
