Reconnecting as an adult

Sorry if this isn’t the right place to post this. I was born in the UK but grew up mostly in the U.S., my Dad was British-Jewish with roots in Romania and my Mom was a Christian German-American. Long story short I lost my parents in my teens and I am now in my mid 20s.

I want to connect more with my Jewish identity and ancestry but I don’t know if it would come off as strange since I haven’t been involved in any traditions for years, and I know that Judaism is passed down maternally. My Jewish upbringing was limited to my circumcision and Hanukkah, I don’t want to seem like I’m claiming to be anything I’m not. But I don’t want thousands of years of Jewish culture to end with me.
