Visualisation to create dream scenes: How good is it.

I've been using the old door teleport technique to take me places I want to be. It always ends up some strange facsimile of the place I wanted to go.
For example, i've often tried to visit a beautiful place I went to on holiday.

All I can say is that the place I ended up had hints of the place I was thinking about. It even felt a bit like it. But it was still a wonky dream scene.

I tried door Teleport last night. I was outside a bedroom. I closed the door and thought of the Enterprise Bridge (cos I wanted to see something hi-tech). When I opened the door, instead of walking onto the starship, the original room had filled up with a weird approximation. The view screen was one of those white boards that you roll up (like they use for presentations).
The captains chair was a sofa. Everything was squashed into the small room.
Colour me dissapointed! :?

So heres my question. How do you find visualisation works when imagining the places you want to visit. Do you find the places seem real, or are they a let down?

I don't try and visualize places I'm going, it only confuses me :?

I've always thought of wherever I wanted to end up after teleporting, or spoken it aloud.

It's always worked for me.

While I am still working on getting LDs(only had one so far), I think you should just say to yourself that if I go through this door, I'll be at wherever you wanna be. Don't visualize the place, just state where you'll end up, otherwise, it seems to me like you're creating a dream scene by doing that instead of having your mind do it, while, IMO a bad idea :)

Yeah, I know what you mean. That sort of thing has happened to me also. I think it is because we think too hard about the enviroment? Maybe try to relax more? I don't know.

I tell the description to my DG, then he creates a door.
