The Motorcycle Diary
This diary has little stories with one to two pages long with a title that summarizes what they have written. Each chapter explain what they do in their journey and their experiences. It seems that not only they use their motorcycle they also walk, hike around places to find new discoveries. It also looks like the person who uses the “first person” is Che who is accompanied by Alberto.

Q1: Why didn’t they use cameras to film their whole trip?
