Natalie Portman has settled into life in Australia since arriving with her family last year.
And on Saturday, the actress, 39, was lending her parents a hand as they checked out of a Sydney hotel.
The American star was hands on, dragging a trolley to the entrance to load up their bags.
She took the trolley to a waiting car, helping to load up heavy bags without the assistance of any minders.
Natalie bent down to pick something up off the floor at her mother's feet at one stage - it appeared to be a tennis ball that had fallen out of a hanging tote bag.
After her parents checked out of the hotel, Natalie took them to the famous Bondi Beach markets, held on weekends alongside the sea shore.
The Black Swan actress was absolutely beaming as she inspected the wares at various stalls.
Natalie went makeup-free for the outing, flaunting her fresh-faced beauty as she went from stall to stall, stopping to give one artisan the thumbs up.
The actress was also seen with one of her children, and her husband, Benjamin Millepied, 43.
She was dressed down for the outing, wearing a long-sleeved black shirt and matching cap.
Natalie added a pair of loose, pale blue trousers, white sneakers, and carried a Dior purse.
At one stage, Natalie appeared to be speaking to a parking inspector, while he doodled on his notepad.
Afterwards, she had an animated discussion with her husband, who had a takeaway coffee cup in his hand, perhaps over where best to park in the busy suburb.
The actress momentarily looked a tad tense, before paying the parking metre and heading off to enjoy the markets.
The superstar has been in Australia since September, with husband Benjamin, and their family.
The brunette beauty shares son Aleph, nine, and daughter Amalia, three, with her choreographer and dancer husband Benjamin.
Natalie has been spending time in NSW, and has gone largely unnoticed as she fits in easily with the laid-back locals in trendy areas like Byron Bay and Bondi Beach.
She was also spotted arriving at Sydney's Fox Studios earlier this year as Thor: Love and Thunder heads into production.
On Friday, Natalie enjoyed a well-deserved night out in Sydney, and was seen watching a drag show at the popular pub, The Imperial, at Erskineville.
According to Pedestrian, a performer on the night was RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under star Etcetera Etcetera.
Earlier this month, the actress and her husband attended an NRL football game in Sydney alongside fellow A-Listers Chris Hemsworth and his wife Elsa Pataky.
In November, she also made her way to a Melbourne Demons AFL training session at Gosch's Paddock. At the time, the A-Lister even donned a jersey like locals.
Natalie was recently out and about visiting popular tourist sites like the Blue Mountains with her family.
The Hollywood superstar is set to play the female Thor in the upcoming blockbuster, Thor: Love and Thunder.
The film will see Natalie's character, astrophysicist Jane Foster, take up the mantle of Thor after transforming into a female version of the Norse god.
The film is scheduled for release on May 6, 2022.
Natalie appeared in 2011's Thor and the 2013 sequel Thor: The Dark World, but much to the disappointment of fans, skipped 2017's Thor: Ragnarok.
