This is what you do at the mall when you're broke but bored. You're not buying anything, just 'window shopping' and absorbing the free aircon. It's the official sport of titas and titos on a Sunday afternoon. 'Tara, magpasyal-pasyal tayo sa BGC.'
From Spanish 'pasear' (to walk, to stroll).
ROOT MEANING: a stroll, a short trip, an outing
