Take the long way through town.
Kerem likes the part of travel that happens between landmarks: side streets, local routines and a route that leaves room to wander.
Kerem's public experiment / Day 0
Can the internet turn a Volkswagen ID. Buzz we do not own into a documented journey around the world?
Visual study only. No vehicle has been purchased and no commercial inventory is open.

This is not a vehicle launch. It is a personal experiment shaped by the things that make a journey worth remembering.
Kerem likes the part of travel that happens between landmarks: side streets, local routines and a route that leaves room to wander.
A good coffee stop is where a new city becomes legible. It belongs in the roadbook beside distance, weather and the next turn.
The best route notes will include the places people share with you, especially the meals that make a stop feel less like a pin on a map.
How it becomes real
Right now the work is simple: tell the story, listen in public and make the route more credible. Nothing is for sale and no application is open.
Follow Day 0Share the decisions, unknowns and changes before there is a vehicle to photograph.
Research the stops, charging reality, road rhythm and the human reasons to take each direction.
Vehicle, legal structure, safety and operations must become real before any commercial phase can be considered.
Tbilisi an indicative first line
The roadbook begins with six city-level stops. It is a direction for research, not a departure date or tracking feed.
Exact live sleeping and parking locations will never be public.
Stops become real only after operational research. The sequence can and should change.

The ambition is big. The current state is deliberately plain.
No sponsorships, bids, reservations, payments or applications are open. Volkswagen is not affiliated with this independent concept.
Why publish before leaving
Kerem wants to build a world journey around an electric van. The van is expensive, the route is unfinished and the answer may be no.
That is exactly why the experiment starts now. Every real step can be documented, every weak assumption can change and anyone curious can follow from the blank first page.
