I fall into pattern of family life so I hardly have a chance to meet my friends. But if I have time I prefer a calm coffee shop for meeting because I am very sick of crowded places. I like coffee too so I think it would be best place for me.
I can only go out without my kid in the weekend because my husband is off and can handed me out to be care for my daughter.

I always meet my friend at her house. Then, 25 minutes later, we decide where we want to go. We usually go for a walk or go window shopping. Then, we go for a coffee.

Actually i dont have a close friend at japan , because im living at abroad .
my friend is almost vietnamese . We usually meet at Onsen once a week .
Onsen as a hot spring, or a resort that has developed around a hot spring.
Japanese `s like there , it `s crowded at a weekend , we are also like too.
We can enjoy the weekend moment , talk and share together our life , After that we have dinner at restaurant like grilled buffet etc.
