In 1910 at the outbreak of war with Ecuador, he enlisted as a soldier in the Cavalry Regiment No. 7 of the Peruvian Army. When things calmed down, he traveled to Buenos Aires, where he was editor of the daily La Razon. In 1911 he returned to Lima as a correspondent for this newspaper. That same year, along with Julio Malaga Grenet founded Fantasio, satirical weekly. He became editor of El Comercio (1912) and then to La Prensa.

In 1914 he became chancellor of the Peruvian consulate in the Spanish city of Barcelona, having to replace the titular consul when he was transferred.
