The centre of the earth would be interesting but will save this for my death bed.

Peaceful alien society that will treat me like an honored pet, like a cat.
Visit my friend as easy return from japan seem unlikely with one way teleport.
Only one-way? Alright, well I'm gonna go walk Lairig Ghru, a hiking route that I like the look of that is too long for me to do there and back. I'll walk out however far I want to go and then magically teleport back to the start
Work, so I don't have to ride in the cold.
Hell
Aren't we already there?
I'll go to The Trackless Wastes of Sparsis.
I think I left my pen there.
I guess to work. It takes me 2 days of travelling to get to work and I have to be there. Assuming I can't return via teleporting from the moon or whatever. Just save myself a days travel
"teleport" - How exactly? am I unassembled and reassembled? Or does my body just move there? At light speed? NO THANKS.
What does teleport mean to you? Exactly a me-sized number of atoms shifts places with me? So I won't burst into flames and leave an explosion where I was?
I end up teleported exactly where I intend to be? Without sight? Without knowledge of that location? In the exact space and time I disappear?
Nah nah nah nah absolutely fucking not. no
I need to be at work for the next few days so I would use it to teleport to work instead of taking the train.
Teleport to Vatican the moment a mass happen right in front of the pope. Then claim to be the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Can I teleport myself into Voyager I? I'd like to see what's out there as I go...
Without a return trip I'd just use it to go to work and spare myself the commute. I'd sleep in that day.
Teleporting home from work would be pretty useful.
Even if it’s a one time thing
Next day: Fuck, car's still at work!
My mom lives three large states away and has Alzheimer's but is still able to recognize people. She's well cared for, but I'm sole caregiver for my bedbound family member. I'm reconciled to the fact I cannot travel to visit her, but if I could go for just half an hour, I would.
I'd like to visit the center of the sun.
A snowy, ruralish place in Canada that I love a lot, which may or may not be my home.
