I want to travel from Florida to Finland by ship. I want to stay there 1 month. How can I do this?
I want to go from Florida to Finland by passanger ship, stay there for approximately one month and come back the same way. Closest ports as Stockholm, Copenhagen, etc... they would work too. There's no way I want to use airplanes, ships only! Please help me, I need to be there in August 2009

get on a boat that sails northeast and get off the boat at the sign that says "Welcome to Finland"

You're going to find this very difficult to do, as transatlantic cruises are rare, very expensive and only use a few ports. Cruises like this tend to be luxury, and much more expensive than a flight. You can see journeys currently scheduled here: http://www.cruisetransatlantic.com/cruises.html The only ships listed this time of year leave from the northeastern US and go to the UK. You would need to first get to NYC from Florida. From the UK, you would have to travel by various ferries, trains and busses to get where you want to go. It would take 10-15 days (including travel within the US and Europe if you don't fly), and likely cost thousands of dollars each way.

Oh, wow! I imagine that would take weeks! And it would be expensive. I travel a lot between the U.S. and Europe and have never met anyone who has done that. Best of luck though.
