Wow! That's impressive if you never made bread before. Do you have a photo of the inside (crumb)?

Not as airy as I wanted, but still decent.

How do you achieve a bigger crumb? I have no idea, but I'm guessing I need something that produces more gas during the baking process like a bicarbonate or something?

No! Please don't add bicarb to yeasted bread. Let it rise a little longer.
