No Orthodox churches near me

Hi everyone, I'm in my 20s and I'm from Colombia (South America), a predominantly Catholic country. I grew up Restorationist but stepped away from the faith until a year ago, when I returned to Christ. For the past few months, I’ve been very interested in Orthodoxy, but I haven’t officially converted yet due to the distance between my city and the nearest Orthodox churches. For now, I consume as much content as I can online, though I’ve never actually spoken to a priest or had guidance.

My questions is:

  1. What should I do until I’m able to visit an Orthodox church?
  2. Is it okay adopt Orthodox traditions even though I’m not officially Orthodox?
