新华网8月7日电 据英国《太阳报》报道,英国跳水小将汤姆·达利将参加一次环球背包旅行秀。他和好友、奥运铜牌获得者苏菲·李将跟随ITV2摄制组前往一系列著名旅游景点。

他们将在未来6周之内前往泰国、日本、澳大利亚、摩洛哥和新西兰旅行。最近刚刚参加过ITV跳水秀的19岁小将达利将在旅行路上住小旅店,并且像普通学生的背包游一样乘坐夜班火车。

达利在旅途中会遭遇蹦极等挑战,还会在路上见朋友,比如来自“星期六”乐队的莫莉·金。

汤姆说:“我都等不及要赶快上路了。跳水和训练是我的最爱,但是我很想打破现在的生活状态,去我一直没机会探索的地方看看。跟我的好朋友一起去旅行简直太棒了。”

ITV数字频道导演安杰拉·嘉殷说:“汤姆作为跳水运动员已经征服了整个国家。我们希望大家通过环球背包旅行看到小伙子跳水以外的生活。”

Tom Daley to travel world for new backpacking show

OLYMPIC diving star Tom Daley is swapping backflips for backpacks as he heads around the world for a new TV series.

The bronze medallist and best pal Sophie Lee will be seen jetting off to several tourist hotspots for the ITV2 show.

They will visit countries such as Thailand, Japan, Australia, Morocco and New Zealand during six weeks of travelling.

The 19-year-old, who earlier this year starred in ITV's Splash!, will be seen heading to hostels and taking overnight train journeys as he takes a typical student backpacking trip.

He will also take on challenges such as bungee jumping, as well as meeting up with friends such as Saturdays star Mollie King along the way.

Tom said: “I can t wait to get away on my trip. Diving and training are my first love, but I am looking forward to a break from the norm and discovering more about places I ve never had the chance to explore before.

"And to do it all with my best friend will be amazing.”

ITV director of digital channels Angela Jain said: “Tom s career as a diver has captivated the nation.

"We hope this show will give people the chance to see the teenager behind the trunks as he enjoys his global backpacking adventure."
