Daniels Family
Families consider relocating down under. Keen to put the past behind them after tough times in the UK, can the Daniels carve out a happier future in New Zealand?
Having put life on hold to help her widowed mum bring up her two young sisters when she was just 18, Debbie Daniels was delighted to finally meet her husband Lee 10 years ago. After a whirlwind romance, the couple believed their wedding in Lapland was the beginning of their happy ever after.
But things haven't quite gone to plan. After suffering several miscarriages, the couple were forced to come to terms with the fact they'll never have the children they hoped for. Now, desperate to put the past behind them, Debbie and Lee are contemplating moving to the other side of the world in pursuit of a fresh start.
Originally Debbie's idea, Lee is enthusiastic about making the move. Ironically though, concerns about leaving the job and family she loves in the UK, have led Debbie to now question the move. So will a trial week in Auckland be enough to seal the deal and put the couple on the path to a happier future, or will the Daniels decide there is no place like home?
