Bankruptcy abroad

Hi,
My husband and I are in debt of about £12k.
He has been out of work for two months and actively looking for about four months now with no success.
I earn enough for us to cover rent but not to live on and in a few weeks we will no longer be able to keep up with our loan and credit card payments.
We are considering heaing back to our home country as it means we can live with family rent free until my husband can get a job again.
The only thing being if we leave the country - it will cripple us trying to pay back in pounds.
Should we bankrupt ourselves now? or does anybody have any experience with doing this process from abroad?
We are getting some advice from CCCS in a couple of weeks but it would good to find out what other people think? Thanks.
