I’d definitely look at the different orders first (Nyingma, Kagyu, Sakya, Gelug, etc) and see if there’s a teacher online or in person that can help you start Ngondro in some given lineage.
I’d also do some research on the practice of Tonglen, while sending prayers for a lama/guru to appear in your life while you wait.
It’s a ocean of teachings out there like others have said, and I don’t think you can go wrong in doing some research on the different orders of Tibetan Buddhism, starting a Ngondro, and practicing Tonglen and counting breaths meditation as your first step. And of course, building up the habit of dedicating your merit of whatever Dharma practice/being a good person lol
Hope this helps, may all beings benefit
