In 1916 he came to live in Britain as the result of World War One. From 1916 to 1919 he worked as a supervisor of Serbian students at Oxford University. In 1919 he was appointed lecturer in Serbo-Croat at SSEES (then the School of Slavonic Studies, King's College London) and remained in this post until his retirement in 1942. He also worked for the Yugoslav Legation as a cultural attaché.
