For actress Angelina Jolie, raising six kids with partner Brad Pitt is nothing short of an adventure.

The ‘Salt’ star, who raises adopted children -- Maddox, eight, Pax, six, Zahara, five, and biological kids Shiloh, four, and two—year—old twins Knox and Vivienne is best known for appearing in action movies but insists nothing compares with being a parent, Contactmusic reported.

“I fly planes, ride bikes with Brad and travel to uncharted territories but the greatest adventure of all is having children. Our kids are very much a part of everything we do,” Jolie said.

The 35-year-old star, whose mother Marcheline Bertrand died of cancer in 2007 admits, she has always been adventurous and her children have the same characteristics.

“I was always fearless and now I have those fearless kids — Pax and Shiloh. I had a very strong mother. She was the kindest and most loving person I had ever known in my life and her faith and integrity were so strong they were unbreakable.

I now live with three very strong women — my daughters Zahara, Shiloh and Vivienne,” Jolie said.
