Film photography is amazing. ISO 400 is a great choice, as it usually achieves a good balance between noise and sharpness. Generally I love shooting in the 200-800 range. I use digital cameras, but it's mostly the same.
I'm quite impressed by your ability to judge shutter speed, aperture and so on, without any real experience with cameras. The photos you posted are great, maybe a little underexposed, but overall good looking. The noise is at the right level, creating that crisp feel that all photographers love about film.
Is the film you're using very expensive, or is it not that bad? My mom was really into photography when she was young, and found that buying large amounts of raw film and then preparing rolls herself was more economical. She also made some money this way, since she sold film to other people, though this is probably not an option for you. At the same time she also developed her own photos.
