Surfers Show Off Floating Village in Tahiti
Surfers didn’t see the cardboard bed news because they were not in Paris.
Indeed, some athletes competing in the 2024 Paris Olympics will not be staying in the city of love. All the Olympic surfers will be staying in the French island of Tahiti during the games—nearly 10,000 miles from the rest of the action.
Still, German surfer Tim Elter shared an inside look at his and fellow surfers’ digs proves that they’re hanging 10 out of 10 in the Polynesian island. In fact, the athlete showed off his room aboard the cruise ship, Aranui 5—which is housing all of the surfers for the next two weeks—in a July 21 TikTok.
In addition to having a full-sized—and not cardboard—bed, Tim’s room is equipped with a balcony overlooking the water and greenery that Tahiti offers. Fans were also quick to note the great end of the stick that the Olympic surfers got with their accommodations, citing its views, bed, the air conditioning and, of course, privacy.
“Athletes in Paris will be shook when they see this,” one fan commented, prompting Tim to reply with a few laughing emojis and add, “They will.”
