To force the update to the recently announced HTC Hero Firmware (for phones with firmware 2.73.405.5),  change the phone date to the future (eg. year 2011)

The best tea in Bucharest

By Emilia Despa in Bucharest  |  2 years ago  |  0 comments

If you're visiting Bucharest in summer time and you like tea, you can go to "Ceai la Cotroceni" teahouse. This is an old house with a beautiful little garden which reminds you of grandma's yard. Very few people know it. Location and map here: http://www.metropedia.ro/locatii/bucuresti/ceai-la-cotroceni/
