I need help with て-form:) Any feedback is very much appreciated!:p Thank you!
今日はこえんでおにいさんにあって、ピザを食べて、ギターをしました。
Today I met my brother at the park, ate pizza and played guitar.
Do I have to write (こえんで) before every single action if I want to express that I did all these things at the park?
Also, I’m wondering if by writing今日はこえんでおにいさんにあって、ピザを食べて、ギターをしました。Am I also saying that I did this with my brother, no right? I think I’m only saying what I did today? But what if I want to say I did multiple things with my brother? I’m just a bit confused right now:/

今日はこえんこうえんでおにいさんあににあって、ピザを食べて、ギターをひきしました。
Today I met my brother at the park, ate pizza and played guitar.
おにいさん＝someone's brother (あなたのおにいさんは・・・）
becouse "おにいさん" is honorific language.
あに＝my brother （わたしのあには・・・）
Do I have to write (こえんで) before every single action if I want to express that I did all these things at the park?
we can understand if you don't write (こうえんで）
For example "今日はあににあって、ピザを食べて、ギターをひきました。”
But if you wrote (こうえんで） we understood more in detail
Also, I’m wondering if by writing今日はこえんでおにいさんにあって、ピザを食べて、ギターをしました。Am I also saying that I did this with my brother, no right?
I ate pizza and played guitar in the park with my brother.
→わたしはこうえんで、あにとピザを食べたり、ギターをひきました。（it is more natural)
I think I’m only saying what I did today? But what if I want to say I did multiple things with my brother? I’m just a bit confused right now:/
I did multiple things with my brother.→わたしはあにと、ふくすうの（or いろいろな）ことをしました。
"I had a fun time in the park with my brother." or "I spent fun taimes at the park with my brother. "→わたしはこうえんで、あにとたのしいじかんをすごしました。
I think "こうえんで、すごしました" is more natural.
Your sentence is very good :)
おたがい、べんきょうをがんばりましょうね(^_^)

こうえんで、おにいさん「と」ピザを食べて・・・・ means "with" your big brother. And, you need to mention the locatin only once because this is the purpose of "te-form"(*^ーﾟ)b ｸﾞｯ

Hi all, Apart from the typo of "こうえん", this is what Arlen-san has learnt so far. All the comments/suggestions are on the way and he will write more accurate/natural sentences very soon. I encouraged him to compose with his current knowledge even if it sounds a bit odd. So, he can see he can communicate with natives/ other learners in Japanese.

Hi, as Maiko-san said, saying あに is better however, in everyday conversation between close people, you can say おにいちゃん, but in writing, it sounds a bit child. One more thing, "to play + instrument" has several translations depending on the instrument, for example: play the piano / guitar = ひく、play the trumpet / saxophone / harmonica = ふく、play the drum = たたく (えんそうする can be used for everything.) I hope this was helpful.
