Elsa Pataky content with her family life in Australia

Actress-model Elsa Pataky says she is happy raising her and Chris Hemsworth's kids in Australia.

The "Thor" star and Pataky are parents to five-year-old daughter India Rose and three-year-old twin sons Tristan and Sasha, reported People magazine.

"We love it. We live there now and it's a long trip, but I think it's a different life for our kids that we decided is the best for them.

"They live in nature surrounded by animals. It was my dream growing up, I grew up in a city, and I always had the dream to be with animals, surrounded with nature, close to the beach. So I thought that would be the best we could give to our family and our kids," she says.
