Hello and Welcome!

I'd say it's best to start with bright, easy to find things. The Moon is an obvious one. The planets also - though they can be tricky to keep in the field of view at high power - and any of the Messier objects are good places to start. I take it you know about the messier catalogue? Take your time getting to know the night sky and the constellations. Avoid galaxies to start with. They're pretty underwhelming for the beginner in light pollution, IMO.

Cheers and have fun!

Markus
