Descripción del sitio
On October 17, 1951 Ernesto "Che" Guevara and his friend Alberto decide to set out on a journey to North America. This idea came into their minds spontaneously:
"The trip was decided just::text like that, and it never erred from the basic principle laid down in that moment: improvisation. Alberto's brothers joined us in a round of mate as we sealed our pact never to give up until we had realized our dream. So began the monotonous business of chasing visas, certificates and documents, that is to say, of overcoming the many hurdles modern nations erect in the paths of would-be travelers."(33)
