"We escaped the UK rat race by moving to Costa Rica for a simple life"

  • 3 months ago
A British family escaped the 'rat race' and moved to Costa Rica for a "simple" way of life.

Naomi, 31, and Johnathan [CRRCT] Jules 30, decided they wanted to leave the UK behind them when their daughter was just two months old.

The pair put their three-bedroom semi-detached house in Darlington on the market, and bought one-way tickets to Guanacaste, Costa Rica.

They are living in a two bedroom apartment with a swimming pool for £900 a month with bills included - saving them £330 a month compared to the UK.

The family moved to live somewhere which "isn't materialistically driven" and are loving their new life packed with sun and outdoor activities.

Their daughter is due to be enrolled in a jungle school when she is old enough and they visit the beach and local market most days.
