Alternate Start - Live Another Life - question

Good Morning folks.

I’ve recently dove back down the rabbit hole into skyrim, doing a lightly modded play through, nothing crazy.

I love the idea of the alternate start mod. I’ve used it before and seem to be running into the same issue. Anytime I start a new play through, I have to trek back down to the south of the map as everything is to strong and just kills me. I try to pick up bread crumb quests and beyond innkeeper bounties that are across the world I can’t seem to get fingers into anything. Any recommendations to kick off a play through?
