His family name came from his ancestor, Juana Guevara de la Serna, who was from Madrid in the 19th century.
Che Guevara's childhood was marked by arthritis, the inability to walk, and a necessary treatment with corticosteroids. Despite his poor health, Guevara spent much time in the nature and wild landscapes of his native Argentina with his family and friends.

His journey took him to Peru, Colombia, Venezuela and then finally to Cuba, where Che Guevara joined the revolution to lead Cuba's liberation from Batista's dictatorship.
