EN: going to a fiesta; attending a festival
The Pinoy version of 'party-hopping' or 'festival-crawling'. It's when you strategically visit relatives in different towns just in time for their local fiesta to get free food. The goal is to collect experiences (and lechon) from every celebration.
From "pista" (fiesta, festival), which is from Spanish "fiesta". The "pan-" prefix becomes "pam-" and the first syllable of the root is reduplicated.
Implies traveling to a fiesta, often as a guest.
