Best Answer
He is not teleporting; these are cross cuts, and indicate lapses in time.

They are sometimes intended to provide an insight into Rick's consciousness (i.e moving to a desolate landscape like the desert when he is lonely), and sometimes it is simply a stylistic choice to demonstrate the passage of time.
