Probably the easiest option is to use this website: 
http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/
Pick the country from the dropdown list, or select the tiles on the map, 
then enter your email address. Then you will be sent a link to download 
the map.
Download the file named osm_generic_gmapsupp.zip.

Depends on what GPS device your friend using, but you probably just have 
to unzip it, then copy the gmapsupp.img file onto a folder named 
"Garmin", either on a memory card or the internal memory.
