The book originated from —or "asphalt expeditions"—that Fanjul undertook while serving as the "Official Walker" for the Veranos de la Villa festival in 2018. Starting each journey from the Lavapiés neighborhood, he explores all 21 districts of Madrid, moving beyond famous landmarks like Gran Vía to highlight the often-overlooked peripheral neighborhoods.
