So I started a new game and some migrants arrived. The map changed to a different place, probably where the migrants came from, but now I can't return the map back to my location. How do I do that?

Are you saying that the terrain itself changed, or something else?

try the '>' and '<' keys. You are probably on another layer than you were before.

You can mark important areas with (shift)+'H' so you can find them quickly over the hotkeys.

Simple answer - Press F1...that should return you to your embark location (the wagon).

There is a waypoint/hotkey type system that you can custom designate.  F1 is automatically set to your wagon when you embark.
Pressing Shift-h will get you to the screen to customize the waypoints.  From there move the main screen to where you want your waypoint, select one of the slots to put it in (use the button combination written in green text on the left side of the window, there are 16 available button combinations), and press z.  Now whenever you use that button combination your main screen will center on the point you designated.

Thank you for the quick response! It worked.

On a side note, do you know how I can put the wagon in the cave I built?

You cannot move the wagon, only deconstruct it with q, then x. As long as it still exists, it will be a meeting area that dwarves and pets will gather at. Which can be quite dangerous.

Thank you very much!
