Series 12: 5. Santa Clara



Since meeting, Persephone De Magdalene and Debbie Santa Clara always shared a dream of emigrating. Their main motivation was a better work-life balance. Debbie is a doctor and worked up to 80 hours a week, so it had fallen to Persephone to put her academic career on hold in order to keep family and home life going. But never being part of family life was taking its toll on Debbie, who decided to cut down on her hours. But that brought its own set of problems - mainly money problems. But their desire to move across the world was more than just about money. As a gay couple they wanted acceptance and tolerance and believed New Zealand offered a more attractive culture and society for same-sex couples.\n\nA trial week saw the family get a vision of life there, but would it be enough to get the kids on board? One year on, the programme finds out whether the family made the leap or not.
