Assuming you are properly equipped to handle the extreme conditions of space, of course. Does not have to be a planet, or even in the Solar System. Any planet, moon, asteroid, star, or other celestial body is available in this hypothetical!
Statistically speaking there has to be some other life out there. Although, with how rare that is and large the universe is, we’ll never find them, and they will never find us.
But with the magic of your question? I’ll go to the nearest planet with another spacefaring civilization!
I just need to remember to bring my towel.
Also remember: don’t panic!
