Chris Hemsworth reveals real reason he quit Hollywood life for Melbourne

Chris Hemsworth is satisfied with his decision to move his family to Australia.

In a recent chat on the Smartless podcast aired on February 23, the father of three kids admitted that moving out of Los Angeles to Byron Bay was one of the was the “greatest decisions" of his life.

“It was right around the time my boys were born and we kind of were set up in L.A. and not enjoying it, you know?” Chris revealed. “Like, nothing was shooting there. We were filming kind of everywhere else.”

One of the main reasons behind leaving the city was the privacy breach by paparazzi.

“And then we’d come home and [there’d be] paparazzi, and all the sort of trappings of living in that space," Chris added.

It is pertinent to mention that Chris shared daughter India Rose and twin sons Sasha and Tristan with wife Elsa Pataky.

Now, Chris lives a peaceful life with his family in Australia.

“You know when you come back from work, you wanna go on a holiday?” Chris said of life in the country. “Like, coming home for me, it feels like a holiday. We have a big farm and horses and motorbikes and surf.”

“We lived about 20 minutes from the main sort of suburban areas in Melbourne up in the hills. And the nearest neighbor was a kilometer or two away. It was just all bushland and rainforest sort of set up around us,” he added. “And so we would just [have] outdoors adventures and play different characters.”
