So he decided to throw himself a country-wide dance party.

Over the course of his 100 days in China, he took at least a few seconds out of his day to record himself dancing to Bruno Mars’s “Treasure” set to his own choreography.

His adventures took him through Beijing, Chengdu, Xi’An, Lhasa, Yangshuo, Zhangjiajie, Shanghai, Feng Huang, and Hong Kong, and many of the locals even joined in on the fun.
