A Chinese man on a world tour to promote the country’s 2022 Winter Olympics has stopped off in Bermuda.

Cao Da Fo said that he had enjoyed the warm reception he had received from Bermudians, as well as the blue sky and water.

He plans to recommend Bermuda as a travel destination to other Chinese people.

Mr Cao, 54, said he had visited more than 200 countries in the lead-up to the February 2022 sports event in the Chinese capital, Beijing.

He added that he hoped to visit every country in the world before the start of the games.

Mr Cao said that the trip, started in 2008, was to spread a positive message.

He added: “I am the most happy person.”
