Default in australia and up to neck in debt

Gee things are bad for tradies.......

I owe $ thousands, thinking about getting 1 way ticket back to UK.

Shall I increase my debt before I go, or try and pay a few $ back ?

Ideas please

and when you arrive back in the UK you will still be in debt and will still not have any work but, you will have spent more money in getting here.

so why bother, why not just stay where you are and ride it out?
