You can start with any paper that you have around. White computer printer paper can work but it's best to use actual origami paper.
Origami paper is generally thinner than computer paper and you'll really appreciate that when you have to make multiple folds. It gets more difficult to make clean creases if your paper is too thick.
Moreover, origami paper comes in all sorts of colors and designs and makes the finished product more spectacular.
