In Lima, they lived in a military corpus and she went to a military school that was part of the complex. Her mother was a private teacher who worked from home. Eva's passion for writing started at the age of ten after reading the book of Mariano Melgar, a Peruvian poetry writer who died in the battle for the Peruvian Independence. He wrote a series of poems about the conflict between Peru and Spain. More so, about a Spanish woman, he felt in love with but their love was forbidden. What captivated her attention was how the author managed to capture raw emotions on his poems, which led her to start writing poetry. At the age of eleven. Eva started participating in poetry competitions held between different prestigious schools in Lima. In December 2003, her father was assigned to work in Russia as a military attaché to the Peruvian embassy.
