Evans Family
Families consider relocating down under. Will a week in Perth show Laura that Australia can give her the family time she is currently missing out on?
Laura Evans thought her life would be perfect when she set up her dream bridal business but, although business is booming, she didn't realise just how much she would have to sacrifice to succeed. Now working seven days a week, she has precious little time with her husband Andrew and young son Brodie. Desperate to turn things around, she thinks life could be better in Australia. Although she has never been, Andrew has told her all about it, following his travels there over ten years ago.
Will a trial week in Perth convince both Laura and Andrew the country really does offer the work-life balance they crave, or will they decide the emotional cost of leaving loved ones at home is too high a price to pay?

Evans family update
The Evans family are still living in Cwmbran, and currently making lots of home improvements with a new bathroom, doors and decorating!
Work life balance has greatly improved for Laura since the filming, due to hiring more staff to help in the shop, which has meant Laura has a lot more time being a Mummy and spending time with hubby Andrew. She has fallen back in love with running her own business since she’s got the great support from colleagues and is finding it easier to delegate all her responsibilities.
The family have started looking at the visa process and are currently weighing up their options.
Exciting times ahead in 2017!
