Need help writing a letter to a friend

Hello everyone! I’m not sure if this is the right place, but I have a friend from Hokkaido who I talk to regularly through email. I have been wanting to write them a letter, but they exclusively speak Japanese. I’m afraid my Japanese isn’t good enough yet to be able to write a whole coherent letter to them.

So here is where I am looking for advice; how should I approach writing this? Should I write in English? (he’s used google translate plenty of times but I’m not sure about the camera feature) I feel like this would cheapen the experience, and I’d like to show appreciation to the culture by writing in Japanese. Or should I write in English, and leave a small note at the end in Japanese? Or maybe even rely on external help writing the letter, so it can be purely Japanese? Any help is appreciated, I just want to share something with my friend. 🙂
