Australian swimmer Ariarne Titmus shared glimpses of one of her favorite spots from her Tasmania tour. This comes just a few months after she competed in her second Olympic Games in which she clinched two gold and two silver laurels.
Following this impressive season, Titmus visited her homeland as she looked to relax after a jam-packed Olympic season. Titmus took to her Instagram handle to share a few pictures of the tour in the stories.
In the posts, Titmus can be seen at Tasmania's "Bay of Fires Bush Retreat" which she described as one of the most 'unreal' places in her native land. She was heard saying in one of her stories :
"So I just got to the Bay of Fire Bush Retreat, and this is honestly unreal."
Here are some of the pictures:

Ariarne Titmus opened up about her plans to take a break after the quadrennial event
Ariarne Titmus revealed her plans to take a break after the conclusion of the 2024 Paris Games.
In an interview after her campaign, Titmus said she is going to take a long break from swimming to keep herself relaxed and fresh. She also elaborated on her plans regarding the next quadrennial event in Los Angeles. She said (via Reuters):
"I’m definitely having a very extended break. I haven’t planned when I’m going back to swimming. I want to go back when I feel ready to go back. Could be up to 12 months. I just want to make sure I’m ready to go in LA. I don’t want to come back too early and, you know, lose that fire, I guess."
During the interview, Ariarne Titmus also said that her main aim in the coming years will be the Olympic Games and not the World Swimming Championships.
