inspired by the movie
here's an excerpt from my recent JE:
Motorcycle Diaries
I recently saw the "motorcycle diaries" over thanksgiving break. man it was awesome. for those who dont know anything about this picture, im going to quickly give u a summary.
it depicts the early life of Che Guevara, a medstudent who along with a friend went on a motorcycle trip across south america that lasted more than 1 year. Along the way, Guevara saw inexplainable injustice and hardships of the aborignees...something that would haunt him and shape his political career in later life. he would eventually be killed by the CIA in 1968.
the cinematography in this movie was amazing. the chilean countryside and the andes were indescribably beautiful.
why am i saying all this? ...because i've got this crazy idea of doing something similar.
Guevara was medstudent raised up in a middleclass family who felt he needed to get something more out of life...which is why he embarked on this amazing expedition.
And as a 25yr old male living in suburbia, i can totally understand what he might've felt during that time. like guevara, i feel that i need a life changing experience....i dont want to spend the prime of my life throwing away my youth reading textbooks, and then realizing one day that i'm a 32yr single male who hasn't done anything exciting in his life.
....i want to make use of the time i have NOW...because this time is never going to come back...once its gone, its gone....
here's what im talking about:
im planning a huge expedition with a couple of friends.
Starting point: london, england. End: Tokyo, Japan
I intend to go by motorcycle, automobile, trains, horseback, boat, goat... whatever....across europe and asia for about 2-3 months.
why: to make use of my youth...and in the end, to be appreciative of what i have.
