Then, he moved to the capital city Santiago, where he temporarily attended San Ignacio School. After suffering school bullying, he moved to Notre Dame School in the same city.

After studying biology at the University of Chile, in 1970, he decided to start a BA in History at the Institute of History of the Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaíso. Nevertheless, he left the career after one year and joined to journalism at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile in Santiago, graduating from there in 1973.[1]
