"Thor" star Chris Hemsworth says he found Los Angeles too "suffocating" and feels he had no choice but to move his family out to a quiet suburb near Melbourne, Australia.

The 32-year-old actor said he had no hesitancy about moving out of his Californian home and away from the paparazzi once his wife Elsa Pataky gave birth to their children India, three and twins Sasha and Tristan, 20 months, reported Female First.

"In the space of three years, we had our kids and simultaneously my career was happening, and everything changed.

"We'd leave the house and there would be six paparazzi out in front. In LA, more than anywhere else in the world, paparazzi are everywhere, 24/7. We felt suffocated. The agitation you feel from the paparazzi rippled in the house."
 

The family loves the peace and quiet Melbourne offers, said Hemsowrth.

"It's just a quiet little surf town with a lot of farming, an hour and a half outside of Melbourne. There are other things in my life now - family, kids.
