In his youth, Colunje joined the civic association Los Deseosos de Instrucción, from which he wrote romantic poems that were published in newspapers of the time such as El Panameño, La Estrella de Panamá, El Neogranadino, among others. He founded several newspapers such as El Centinela (1856, together with Pablo Arosemena), La Tribuna Federal (1879) and La Defensa (1880).
