Jason* works four weeks on and four off. At work, he lives on an oil rig off Western Australia, and when he's off he lives with his wife and three daughters in Bali.

Concerned about rising crime in their Perth suburb, Jason and wife Michelle moved their family almost 3 years ago.

"In my line of work there are a lot of expats so it was always in my mind that we didn't necessarily have to live in Australia. We had options open to us." Jason said.

Far from being frightened of terrorism, they feel more secure in Bali.

Watch the full story above.

*Jason and his wife Michelle prefer to use their first names only.
