CHILE


As "Che" traveled through Chile i think he experienced lots of new things. First off he had encountered a part of the world that he has never seen before. It was the slums of Chile. No medical treatments available, no sanitation, no clean water. But, although they do not have much to offer their hospitality is greatly appreciated. The Chilean people were so good to them. So, in a sense "Che" & Alberto were know to be "famous". Che being an "expert" went and talked to a couple that were communist. But, communism is basically outlawed. If you were a communist you were an outcast. But, "Che" spoke to them about how communism should not be outlawed and how they should include it more into peoples lives. So, i think this experience that he had with becoming a big shot and talking to people about politics made him realize that he wanted to bring change. That communist lifestyle is not that bad at all (not really its horrible). But, i think that truly sets that path for Ernesto for later on in life for a communist kind of lifestyle(communist leader later on).

  1. I agree that his experiences with the poor in Chile influenced his Communistic ideas.
