The Motorcycle Diaries

Before Che Guevara was a was one of the most influential revolutionaries in Latin and South America, he embarked on a motorcycle roadtrip to see every South American country he could. This book is his diary entries of that trip where we get to see him practice medicine, flirt with his landlords wife, hustle for the modern equivalent of $5, see tragic Inca ruins, and play cards with strangers. His perspective is incredibly introspective and humanist, giving you context for what lead him to be such a successful leader.

Life changing book, I strongly recommend.
