Looks like they do sell them here. Ive heard a bit about VWs newer electronics being a bit dodgy but it sounds like you've had good experiences with them.
I've liked their stuff any time I've had a chance to drive them.
Yeah, they seem to be pretty common workhorses everywhere that's not the US.
Weirdly there doesn't seem to be a developed market for smaller 4x4 vans here.
There's a van Mitsubishi makes that's a bit tough to find in the states that makes a good camping/adventure vehicle. The Delica I think?
It's a 4x4 diesel.
Used to see clones of them all over the mountains in southern China. Someday I want to find an old one and fix it up.
Here's one kitted...
I take walks with one of the biotechs at the park I work at who has a pretty solid knowledge of some of our local species. It's a real help to get started with folks who do this stuff regularly.
Ran across wild strawberries, mulberry, elderberry, burdock, cattail, and american groundnut just...
I'm thinking later summer I might grab some friends and go get some more certs and do a refresher of my open water. I've been out of it way too long.
I've been meaning to get my drysuit cert just because the water up here gets reaaaal cold. Also I've got a buddy who has been inviting me to go...
Buddy of mine gave me a few books on this a bit back and we've been hiking around looking at what stuff is edible in our area.

and the other was a more scientific guide...
Forgot my actual camera, so only had my phone for the weekend. Even with time and my camera in working order I probably couldn't do this place justice. It's incredibly beautiful.
After the morning hiking along the loop we headed down to the beach to follow some trails that were a little more...
picked up surco mounting hardware for the roof basket I picked up second hand, also picked up a crkt tomahawk on a friends rec. Usually I just keep a carpenters hatchet because hatchet + hammer has always been useful, but I figured I'd switch it up for once. Also grabbed some gorilla mudflaps...
I found an old surco safari basket on craigslist, unfortunately the guy didn't have the mounting hardware anymore. I'll scrape and repaint it with bedliner, but then I have to find some ubolts that'll fit it on to the rails I've got.
Not real sure surco makes mounts that work with my forester...
Advantage of a good bean salad is it's pretty easy to pack and keeps well.
All the pre ingredients for pea soup can also be dehydrated, measured, and stuck in bags.
Also, I'm not 100% certain, but I think trader Joe's has vegan friendly Indian food packets that don't need refrigeration. Again...
