« I’m coming from the centre of the universe to walk beside you on your way and in your dreams » says Xico to those who love listing.

Xico as Mexico

Don’t be surprised, his origin comes from Aztec, people who considered Mexico as the centre of Cosmos. In fact, the name of this country, “Mexico”, comes from the name “Xxico_negro_leftoloitzcuintle”, an ancestor of our Xico.

According to theAztecs’ legend, Xoloitzcuintle guided the soul of his master to overcome the obstacles during his missions and far beyond. As for Xico, he will guide us towards new destinations…

The Placide takes its chance to prepare the year 2011, the Mexican Year in France!
