I usually meet my friends at my house. I invite my friends and their family for dinner or for lunch.

Usually I meet with my friends in the club . because it is a quite place and all the people the are engineers like us . and we meet usually in our days off.

The fact that I haven't got many friends. But, I have any best friends. Sometimes, I meet her at her home or my home. Then, we go shopping, coffee, eating, etc ... I usually meet my friend on my free day or sometimes after work. On that days, we often chat, talk about work, life ... And I feel relax when I meet my friend.
