/Sounds like "pee" (as in "pea") + "TOO" (as in "tool") + "kah" (as in "car")/
An upper-class woman or someone who acts like one in Peru, with a stuck-up attitude and exclusive taste. You can spot her from a mile away by how she talks, dresses, and looks at everyone else with a certain superiority.
“That pituca doesn't hang out with anyone from the neighborhood.”
“She acts all pituca but lives just like the rest of us.”

Coger botella
A Cuban verb for hitchhiking: standing at the roadside so a stranger will give you a ride. In Cuba, coger botella is a universal form of transport because buses are scarce and taxis are expensive. It is a deeply Cuban social practice: strangers sharing part of the road with no expectation of payment.
