But as well as adding a dose of adventure to their kids' lives, the relocation has also bolstered the parent's bank balance. Matt and Carlie had grown tired of "living to work" and spending their cash on constantly soaring bills , so found the perfect solution. They sold their three-bed home in Denton for £365,000 to "escape the rat race" in favour of life on the idyllic Indonesian island. The family found the perfect pad to live in for just £2,000 a year while they build their perfect property from scratch on their 1,200-square-foot plot of land. Even after purchasing the estate for £100,000, the couple says it will cost them £263,000 less to construct than it would in the UK. Matt, who now works as a joiner in Ubud, said: "This was something we have wanted to do for years. "A couple of times we would go over to Spain , and I was looking for cave houses as I wanted to go off grid. "In the UK it got to the point where I wasn't spending much time with my kids, I would spend about an hour with them before bedtime. "I was constantly chasing bills and working. I did a lot of research into Bali as it has all-year-round tourism, and the weather is great." The dad booked one-way flights to the Indonesian paradise in November last year, despite their relatives saying they were "mad." But Matt){kind=link}
