When I am visiting others, most of the time I will bring the gift. The gifts usually are fruits, candies and snacks.

It depends on the occasion of the visit. If I am visiting friends in hospital or I am visiting them because they are celebrating some events, yes I would bring a gift. Usually I bring fruits, sweets or cakes. But I am visiting my friends just for catch up or going out together, then I will not bring a gift.

I think it depends on the situation. If they're sick or in the hospital, then yes. If your just dropping by their house then yes or no. A spur of the moment decision to drop by would be a no gift situation. If I were planning on stopping by to hang out then yes I would bring something.

It depends on how well I know them, the purpose for the visit etc, But yes I do tend to bring a gift, some sweets or toys for the children, or biscuits.

Yes, especially when that person is in the hospital. I would bring fruits, or flowers. When I visit my friends, sometimes I bring, sometimes I don't depending if there's spare money in my wallet). I must say it's best to bring something when you come to visit somebody. Besides, it's better to give than to receive, right?
