Ernesto Guevara de la Serna ,well known as "Che Guevara," was born on June 14th, 1928 in Santa Fe, Argentina. And he died on Octber 9, 1967 in La Higuera, Argentina.
He was a doctor, politician and "guerrillero" (a man that fights with the guerrillas, groups of organized people that fight against the goverment). He fought for the freedom of Cuba and headed the Cuban Revolution. Since a little kid he always had an antimperalism attitude, during his whole life he travelled through all Latin America.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna spent most of his life travelling, some of his places of residence were:
Rosario Argentina,
Alta Gracia Argentina,
Córdoba Argentina,
Buenos Aires Argentina,
La Habana Cuba,
Congo,
La Higuera Bolivia.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna is my hero because most of all he fought for his beliefs, he dedicated his life to help other people. He left behind all of his things to go out there and fight for the freedom of several countries. In spite of having liberated Cuba, he wanted more.
