Hi,
If you know the name of the previous theme, the one you want to switch back to, then you may search for it in your account Themes page, and activate it there, as described in the Change Your Theme support page. Please see the After Switching Themes section regarding things that might have to be checked after switching from one theme to the other.
If you don’t remember the name of the theme you want to switch back to, you might find it in your Activity log, which you’ll find here: https://wordpress.com/activity-log/. See the Activity support page regarding what types of activity are recorded there, how to view your activity, and other relevant information.
I see that there is still some content on the site linked to above. See, for example, the 2018 archives page, here: https://jazzsportfolio.wordpress.com/2018/, which displays ten posts and a link to older posts. If you want to display your latest posts on the homepage, then at Customize > Homepage Settings > Your homepage displays, choose “Your latest posts.”
Otherwise you may choose the “A static page” option, and select a static page from the drop-down menu there to serve as the homepage. If you do so, then you should select another page to serve as the posts page. It looks like you recently set the static page “Blog” as your homepage. However, that page will not automatically display posts when it is set as the homepage. Only the page set as the posts page does that (automatically).
