The plan: Taking 8,000 Km in 4 months.
How: Improvisation.
The goal: Exploring Latin America we know only through books.

Hey Fuser ... nice Fuser!
And occasionally, to develop asthma.
Departure date, January 4.
The route: From Buenos Aires to Patagonia and then to Chile ...
... and then north to the height of 6,000 meters in the Andes towards Machu Picchu.
From there proceed to shelter at the San Pablo lepers in the Amazon jungle in Peru.
The end goal: the Guajira Peninsula in Venezuela northern tip of the continent.
We stopped in peninsula until Guajira, the tip of the continent.
With a mouthful of wine and good music.
The beer was tasty kah?
Fuser, dated January 4, later all your exams are finished, right?
Ya ..
If you want, I could turn to Miramar to visit your boyfriend.
"Pacar."
In a couple of days.
- See, Fuser, look at that guy. - What?
Do you want your whole life like that?
You do not want your whole life like that, Fuser.
You're just like screwing every woman in every country in South America.
Hey kid ... and in every town if we are lucky. That and enhancements out.
That we both have: Persistence us, the spirit of our dream ...
... and love relentlessly will route this trip.
Buenos Aires, Argentina, 4 Januari 1952.
Buenos Aires, Argentina, 4 Januari 1952. Km 0.
Let's go, Ernestito. We have not got all day. Come on.
- It is not an exaggeration, Granado? - Even less, boss. Norton 500, "this" is a motorcycle.
Do not worry, son ride the best bike.
You have to prepare for difficult times, kid.
But actually I always dreamed of doing something like this.
And I'll admit if I had a few years younger, I would join the bike ride with you.
Let's say I did it for both of us.
- 10 years I planned this trip, uncle. - Since you were a kid.
Meanwhile...
... entrust all of you ya?
And the revolution too, uncle, when?
Here? Still another century.
- Did you want to go? - Yes, I'm leaving.
OK. You just have to worry about drug asmamu huh?
And also writing to me ...
It will be the most beautiful letter I've ever read mom.
- Good bye honey. - See you later. I love you.
See you, bro. Be careful.
Goodbye.
Disclosure.
Send me a postcard.
Well. Stop or I'll start crying. Please.
Be careful, ok?
As Don Quixote had Rosinante and Saint Martin had his mule. We had "La Poderosa".
- Yes, that is the oil leak. - Yes, that is the oil leak, but I mean it is appropriate at this particular time.
The young Fuser and I set off on my way to the most remote places of the human soul ...
... where we'll find a new place, listening to the new songs, eat new fruits.
Granado ... I give you responsibility. If something happens to Ernesto, I'll find you. Replace the napkin, baby.
Not to worry ma'am, he will again be to become a doctor like we all expect.
You'd better be.
Well, time to go!
Beast!
Be careful with the bike!
Beloved mother. Buenos Aires is behind us now.
Behind us are miserable life ...
... lectures, exams and dissertation makes sleepy.
In front of us there is Latin America.
From now on, we will only trust in "La Poderosa".
If only the mother could see us. We like the adventurers who invites admiration and envy everywhere.
There, Mial. Perform an aerodynamic riding position.
Come on baby, do not disappoint me dear. Come on, come on.
There is nothing, Mial?
I'm glad I left civilization ...
... and be closer to the earth.
Wait, there comes out, comes out.
Fuser! Fuser, are you okay?
What is wrong?
Are you okay?
- What is that? - Did what?
- Dogs? - Shit. You can not drive.
That dog doing on the bike?
It's Chichina and his name is Kamba.
Lift the bike.

My father told Aunt Roxanna to keep watching me.
My mother had vowed that he would make a pilgrimage to the tomb of the valley porters when we broke up.
And parents did not realize the more they try to bury the diamond, then the pirates will increasingly want to steal it?
Believe me, this diamond would not refuse stolen.
Ayo. Dansa.
See.
Let me see your bathroom.
- Good night. - Good night.
Good night..
- Good night. - Good night.
Aunt Roxanna, which my room?
Go there, Kamba!
- How many days did you say we are going to stay here? - You already know.
2.
- And how many days are we here? - If you're a doctor, are you going to be a wireless operator as well?
6 days, Fuser.
Will anyone see us.
If you stay we could do many things, Ernesto, but only if you stay.
I do not like it.
- Do you want me to say? Do you want me to say that I'll be waiting for? - I told you that I will be back.
- Yes, the dog will be proof. - You do not like?
What do you want to hear, Ernesto? What would you hear?
You heard me say that I'll be waiting forever, if I'm going to wait for months until you get back?
- What is wrong? - What do you want? What do you want?
I wanted to like this go on forever. Quiet.
I want to see, because I would have never met you a long time.
Of course I'll wait for you, but please do not go on forever.
- And forever is how long? - Hey, there wet, sir.
I will not touch you.
Did I hit you? Did I hurt you? Did I hurt you? It was a trick, a trick that sucks.
Okay guys ... time to go. Fuser.
Ms. Ferreira. Thank you for everything.
"I used to listen to the sound of bare feet were splashing in the boat ... And I thought I saw a darkened faces hunger ..."
"My heart is like a pendulum between her and the street ..."
"I do not know what kind of power I can detach myself from her eyes, and then I went out of his arms ..."
"It seems to cover his tears with pain. Behind the rain and the glass ..."
- Lorca, huh? - Not.
- Neruda? - Not.
- Who? - I do not remember.
- Goodbye! - Dah!
Wait! Wait. I'm inexperienced ...
Jadi..dengan gabrieladali, can not be anything ...
Not even after you give it a German shepherd puppy ... do not get anything?
I mean, at least you see the tits, right? Just one?
Ahh ... you've seen both her breasts, Ernesto.
Scalpel ... scalpel ...
US dollar?
$15.
- Chichina -? Ya.
I like your boyfriend. I always say that she was your girlfriend. Now we can eat well
- No ... - Protein foods.
No, he gave me this money for later we get to the US. He asked me to buy underwear.
I told her I would be traded.
- What? - Forget about this money. This is not for our budget.
- The stupid, it just makes me angry. - Che, you talk on the bike again huh?
Listen to me, is something wrong with your head? She was membodohimu.
Calm down.
- A good afternoon. - Hi.
Stone Eagle, Argentina, 1952. 29 Januari 1809 Km.
- The motor is how? - The cord shorted out.
Asshole! Shit!
You're okay, Fuser?
His legs ...
Damn ...
See pipe ... cheeky!
Give money, I've run out!
Wait, wait, do not mess with me!
- Why do you even choose here, you idiot? - No, you select here.
Hold that side.
- No ... Damn! - Fuck ...
- The tent drifting. - Take, take.
Gone was.
- Che, what if we get there? - We have to ask for help, to the local people.
- Want to wear a reason which one? The lamp is broken? - No, just say want to ride a bowel movement. You've had the experience, right?
- Good night. - Good night.
You want what?
You may not believe it, but we both doctors from Buenos Aires and Crdoba.
We're all over the country to investigate ....
... in hopes of curing some of the worst diseases throughout the 20th century.
Diseases do not just spend our energies, but also makes Argentina the poor.
If you can read medical books as we ...
You both want? Basic trash.
Look pack. Strong winds blow away our tent. We were starving and we need a place to stay overnight.
Good, good soil in a hut there. You can sleep with the workers.
We have a doctor ...
I like your face, but I do not like your face, fat.
Do you want it or not?
- Yes, we will. - Thank you.
Beloved mother. We still went on, but to be honest, the day of our motors is getting weaker.
San Martin De Los Andes, Argentina, 1952. 31 Januari 2051 Km.
Money and food is scarce, but we always find a way to be able to eat and sleep for free.
Thanks to our secret weapon: the ability to seduce Alberto.
... a disease that not only spend our energies, but also impede the progress of Argentina.
You doctor yes.
- Not. Alberto biochemist and I am a student S2 Medicine. - He has already passed, so you could say we were a doctor.
- Then I ask for help. Can consult a lump in my neck. - With pleasure, sir ..?
Von Puttkamer.
Not sick?
This tumor.
- Tumor? - or.
- You think so? - Yes.
Excuse me.
I do not know Fuser. Deposition of fat. It could be a cyst.
Not. It was a tumor in the occipital.
- Schatzie (= honey. German), they told me I had a tumor. - Tumor?
Good morning, I think this is not a tumor, but the sebaceous cysts.
If you could give us a place to eat and sleep, we can treat it.
No, no, look, we can not treat it. You need to Buenos Aires. I can recommend a specialist.
- Or we could try to help him, iyakan? - Help to wear? Wear grass? Wear prayer?
- I understand, you can not do anything. - Yes, we can if you give us a place to eat and sleep.
- Around here there are a lot of fish and the lake there are cabin. - Sir, the diagnosis is still ...
We do not need to talk anymore. Come on, Schatzie.
The next time the two of you could help us a little.
Of course I'll help you, but never at the expense of the health of others.
Well, let's say you're right and the old man had a tumor. How are you gonna tell him?
That's the truth. If he can not stand, send it off course.
You can not treat a patient that way.
The man had a serious illness. The sooner he consult, the better.
That's just the name of treatment. What they do not teach you that at biochemistry school?
Needless to chew me medicine.
Passed first and lectures. You think you know everything, you idiot?
I'm going to find food.
Duck! Duck! Duck! Give the gun, quick! Quick!
Damn ...
Great, Mial ...
I think about it.
- How do you do? - I can not believe it.
There was no other choice but to take to the lake and catch their own food, right?
Fuser, there nyebur. Catch a duck!
You are really crazy if you think I want nyebur. Know not as cold as what?
Yes, I know that you are allergic to water, like hot or cold, but you know ...
... I'm older, smarter and I've shot the duck, so you should go.
- You're firing at random, after all I have asthma. - All right, you're right. If you can not, I will.
- I did not say that I can not. - You can not or you will not.
I'm not saying that I can not.
Or you do not want and it's the same. Or you can give me the $ 15 of Chichina ...
... and we can eat well by the grace of God, go.
- If I find duck it, will eat it themselves. - Ah! In water, in the water, duck.
- zakarku will freeze. - Kayak will you wear it, Fuser.
Good, Fuser, good ... Give duck and potatoes. Cold yes, Fuser? Hey! Cold? Not here.
Baby.
- You're sick huh? - Not. I am fine.
Stations Bariloche, Argentina, 3 days later. 2270 Km.
Quiet.
Fuser...
Fuser, listen to me. Give me the money from Chichina and go to the hospital like a normal person.
If you say that again, I'll throw up on you.
Beloved mother ... What is missing when you cross the border? All was divided in two.
Melancholia will be all we have left, and at the same time we get a new place when stepping enthusiasm.
Lake Frias, Argentina, February 15, 1952. 2306 Km.
- Look, Mial, Chile. - Chile! Live Chile!
- Is this your first time out of the country? - Yes, of course.
You're almost a man, Che.
Look, Mial, then if we are old and tired of traveling, we have to come back here and open a clinic on this lake.
Great idea.
Provide treatment to everyone, if anyone comes.
I'm sure that, sis.
- Hey, all the better yes, Fuser, eh? - Yes.
- Hey, it snowed. - No, just ice it.
- Help me. - On the count of three, 1, 2, 3 ...
Done.
Road, street, road.
- Damn, it's cold! - This is such a summer, right?
Che, you said we would go to Chile like two conquerors. Instead of walking like two losers.
If you do not like it, you just die, Ernesto.
Temuco, Chile, 18 Februari 1952. 2772 Km.
Why do not we throw it in the garbage culprit of this problem?
And explore the continent while walking? You're so smart?
Yes, we will see and meet more people. You also will thin, and.
Basic sissy. With the money from Chichina, we can fix this.
Again about it. Just forget about the money.
Good, perfect. If you're as crazy as it is, there continued to walk up to Venezuela and leave me here with the money.
You know, I'll get there faster and do not need to interfere people's business.
Fuck you, asshole!
"Oi, Ernestito, buy me panties American from Miami."
Do you realize that you will never see the underwear is worn or removed? Bastard!
Fuser...
You know what your problem is?
You're too honest.
You must often lie from now to help us.
Wait a minute.
- Hey, what are you doing? What are you doing? - Soon, soon.
thanks.

Sorry to interrupt, but if you help us now then you will take part in improving relations between our two countries.
If I'm not wrong, you want me to fix your bike for free.

Cheers!
You know, I was thinking about you.

Los Angeles, Chile, 26 Februari 1952 Km 2940
We are late 25 days.
Wait...
Halo!
There is a rumor that the Chilean women are the most challenging women across the continent.
Gossip no scientific basis, Dr. Granado. We have to test it in the field.
- You really do not like? - Not! Not!
They come!
- Hello girls! - Hello!
Excuse me, the place was full.

- You realize it's not, Che? I do not. - I do not.
- You know what the date today? - February 26th.
February 26th. We may look like a liar, but a year had passed ....
A year has passed? Since what?
- A year since we began this journey. - Very good.
- Damn, it's been a year and we do not have any money to celebrate. - Want to drink a bottle of wine with us?
- Wine? - Yes ...
Lucho! Bring a bottle of wine for our Argentine guests who've tried hard.
But Miss, no offense yes, I can not drink wine.
- Why? Why can not a little drink to celebrate? - Precisely...
- There is an old tradition in Argentina .. - Come on, do not ...
What?
- I think they deserve an explanation. - I think yes.
Thanks Lucho! Here, there is an old tradition in Argentina that did not allow us to drink on an empty stomach.
And because we had no money at the moment, we can not buy food ...
... and we have to say no to you who are kindhearted.
- Thank you very much. - Please, do so ...
- ... tunggu. Fought! - Fought?
- Fought! - Already?
Could bring us empanaditas?
- Do you like Chilean empanadas are not? - I've never tried.
- 4, 8? - They're hungry. 12.
I love that number.
- I want to stay here. - Unfortunately we do not have a place to stay ...
... but we could sleep in the square. It does not matter!
Hey, but my father likes the Argentine people.
- Not! - Yes! Yes, I think he can help you.
He is the head of the fire department, so he knows a lot of people.
- Wait ... - You're brothers?
Yes, of course, time is not conscious? See...
They are not aware.
New mechanic will be back tomorrow, but the bike can be left here.
- Thank you very much! - Thank you very much!
Come here! Me introduce you two in Argentina 2 volunteers who will stay here.

- Excuse me. - Yes?
Sorry to interrupt, but what you two doctors?
- Yes! - Not.
- Yes! - Not!
I biochemists.
- can consult a sick woman? - Can, let alone when ...
If possible now, because he was very sick. It has been long since he see a doctor.
- Well, I used to take my things and go. - Seriously?
Glad to be faithful to the Hippocratic oath, Fuser!
- Ernesto -. Monchuo.
- Who? - Monchuo.
Monchuo. Monchuo.
Excuse me.
Look at my eyes.
I will hold your neck a bit.
They have to eat?
I do not know.
Prayer Mrs. Rosa, I'll give you this pill.
Drink 1 after meal.
And one before bed.
It will make you feel better.
Beloved mother ...
I know I will not be able to help the poor woman.
Until a month ago, he could still serving food on the table and paint like me.
Trying to live with dignity.
In the eyes of dying, there is a genuine desire to say goodbye.
And a desperate plea to be soothed and then disappear into the void
As his body, which soon disappeared along with the mystery that surrounds us.
Fuser, you still have not asked me about the results of the field tests Chilean sisters.
You know I worry that you'll be a sexual ambassador of Argentina.
You two are traveling up the trash?
His name is "La Poderosa" (= Si Strong)
It used to be possible yes. Now we can change its name to The Dead or The Paralyzed ...
Oh, yes? Why?
What do you mean why? Because I'm a mechanic.
If you sell it per kilo bike, you still can get something. But the garbage was already dead when it gets here, right?
I will miss you, Negra.
I'll take this. Come on!
Now what? We still go?
Yes, we still further. You're only 30 years old once in a lifetime.
You're terrific, Ernesto Guevara de la Serna!
- If we redeem its dollar ... - No!
Do not even try!
We've arrived at Valparaiso.
"I like Valparaiso. Where else can you surround and irradiate bride of the ocean?"
"What is even more remote than Halomu deaf ..."
- Federico Garca Lorca. - No, Neruda.
Valparaiso, Chile, 7 Maret 1952. Km 3573.
- Thank you! - Thank you!
- It is of Chichina! - Chichina, and the money?
- What should I open? - Yes, just open.
All right.
I left the two of you.
How I love you, Celia de la Serna!
What is wrong?
Fuser!
- Che, are you ready? - Me?
Yes, you!
- Of course! - Come on!
Right away, sir!
Atacama Desert, Chile, March 11, 1952. 4960 Km.
You know, the plan is much better, Fuser.
Arrogant of you! At least answer me!
You want to go back?
There! I'm going to the mine and will tell you how to shape.
So you think I'm not strong enough to walk up to the mine?
If the doctor asthma like you can, I can too.
Stupid!
Oh, you want to win?
Stop! Damn !!
- Good night, how are you? - What is your name?
- Ernesto! - Nice to meet you!
Yes, that's where we come from.
We did not have much except the soil dry and tough planted.
The land belonged to his grandfather.
The land was ours to have landlords who come and evict us.
And like it they call progress.
We had to leave our children with a large family and go far to find a job.
We are trying to escape from the police who tried to arrest us.
Why?
Because we are communists.
We're going to mine. If we're lucky, I'll get a job.
It seems that there are very dangerous job to the extent that they do not care what party you join.
Are you looking for work?
No, we are not looking for work.
Not?
Then why did you go away?
Because...
God bless you!
We wish you a blessed journey too!
- Take this. - Thank you!
- This "mate". - Thank you!
Their eyes are dark and depressing.
They tell us about their friends who disappeared without a reason.
And it seems some of the disappeared was tipped seabed.
That night was one of the coldest nights of my life.
But meeting with them made me feel closer to humans.
Aneh..sungguh strange to me.
You!
You too.
You're next.
You!
Come on you guys!
Chuquimata mine, Chile, March 15, 1952. The 5122 Km.
You!
Quick, quick, quick.
Climbed into the truck. The rest went home. Exit!
You two! What are you doing here?
No! We just look around.
Look around at what? This is not a tourist spot. Exit!
Can not you see that these people are thirsty? Give them water, jerk.
I'll call the guards so that they catch.
- Oh yeah? Why? - Why?
Breaking in. This property Anaconda Mining Company.
Come on.
Damn!
When we left the mines, we feel that the reality has changed ..
... or even our own changing.
As we venture into the mountains, the more we meet with the natives ...
... who does not even have a roof, originally a place of their land.
Finally we entered Peru.
Thanks to the half-blind truck driver, Felix.
I almost forgot. Today's birthday Alberto to 30, but not in Venezuela as we planned.
We were tired bu, to the extent that we can not celebrate.
Fuser!
This is impossible.
Finally we arrive at the heart of America: ..
...Cuzco.
Cuzco, Peru, 2 April 1952. Km 6932
Upon entering the town, we met Don Nestor.
The wise man who later became our official driver, ma'am.
I want to know, the walls are made in Inca which?
That this Inca wall, and that the walls of Spain.
As a joke, we call this wall as an Inca wall and that wall with a wall made in Spain sluggish.
Cuzco was the capital of the Inca empire, but after the Spanish arrived, they destroyed everything and moved the capital to Lima.
- Lima? - Ya.
- Here square? - Yes.
He said he never enrolled because she was always taking care of the cattle ...
... so he can not speak Spanish, only Quechua.
