[Havana, Cuba, 2015]
You can see Ernesto "Che" Guevara's portrait everywhere in Havana. One of Che's most famous story is that he traveled through South America on a motorcycle and was radicalized by the poverty, disease and hunger that he witnessed. His travel journal, "Motorcycle Diary", was published and turned into a movie.
Let's not judge what he believed is right or wrong, but what we can learn from it is that.... long adventurous travels can indeed spark enlightenment. There is a reason why many people call it "soul searching." Che found his soul in the end. What is yours? What is mine?
[哈瓦那,古巴,2015]
切,格瓦拉的畫像在哈瓦那隨處可見。這名古巴革命家,格瓦拉最有名的事跡,就是騎著機車旅遊中南美洲了一整年。在旅途中見證到的困苦,貧窮,饑餓與疾病激發了他激進革命的信念。他的遊記,「機車旅遊日記」,之後被出版也被拍成了電影。
我們先不管他的信念是好還是壞,但是我們可以從中得知的是...長遠的冒險旅遊可以啓發你的信念,這也是很多人稱如此旅行為一個找尋自我的旅程。格瓦拉找到他的自我了。你找到你的了嗎?我找到我的了嗎?
