drive round the world
 
Hello!
I'm planning to drive round the world next year and I'm looking for companions!
Would be 2 cars, 5 people max...
Starting in Portugal, through Moscow to Vladivostok, ferry to Japan, ferry to Seattle and drive to New York.
Any interested people?

You're going to take a ferry from Japan to Seattle?

Hi!
At this moment I havenīt found any ferries from Japan to Seattle, but will ship the cars in containers...
Warm regards from Portugal

Filipe, That's why I asked... I live in Seattle and had never heard of such a thing

Before you plan to drive across Siberia, suggest you read Jim Rogers' "Adventure Capitalist".

Suze,
Actually I'm thinking of crossing westwards, from Seattle to Japan or Russia. HAve you, by any chance, heard of any good shipping company there?
Warm regards from Portugal

I looked into shipping my car to Hawaii awhile back. It was about $800. I don't know which companies are good, but found only a few offering the service in the Seattle phone book/yellow pages.
