Yeah, It was my this was one of my first times using a pinhole camera. Got any ways I can avoid this in the future?

May I suggest to pay attention to the tiny hole you made? I have had similar problems and they were due to the glares caused by the edge of the hole. I had to use sandpaper again on both sides of the metal
Pinhole photos are great!

Another thing... Pay attention to the sun, I have had issues with it when shooting around midday. Too much light? I do not know

I don't think sunlight would have been an issue, as i was shooting on overcast days- the exposure for this was about 50 seconds because of the low light.

Ok, so the glares caused by the uneven hole are the most likely guilty 
A question: is it easy to find film, paper and all these old fashioned items in your Country? Here the "physical" shops are becoming like pandas

Quite easy, 35mm film is sold everywhere pretty much, but you have to look about to make sure you're not getting ripped off.
Photographic paper is a little bit more difficult to locate, but my college buys it from a company and we can buy it from there.
Liquid emulsion and Cyanotype are also available from my college, but they get it from internet stockists.
Plates however, are so difficult to find, and when you do they tend to be very expensive.
I'd search the internet or ask about in camera specialist shops and see if they have any information for you
