British Olympian set to relax on caravan holiday
Posted on August 26th 2008
Britain's first Olympic medal-winning gymnast for 80 years has returned to the UK, and will be heading out on a caravan holiday, it has been reported.
Louis Smith, 19, who won an Olympic bronze in Beijing this summer, has explained that nothing has changed as far as he is concerned, and that all he wants to do is relax in the caravan parks of Great Yarmouth.
"It has all been so crazy but it has been so worth it," he said.
"All my mates are saying I am a celebrity now. It is so amazing…But I'm still the same old Louis to them because they know all the old stories about me.
"But with me missing the holiday season being out here I said I would pay for the caravan…It won't be as warm but I'll have my own friends and a relaxed time," he added.
Caravanning can be almost any holiday you are after, with opportunities to take your caravan to a hiking district, the beach or near to extreme sports destinations.
