If you are to drive, I believe that an occasional ferry does leave these days
between Alaska and Kamchatka (Unfortunately, you've probably left it too
late to drive over the Polar ice cap before this September) I don't know what
service facilities are like in Siberia, though.  I'm sure the East Coast
to Alaska leg would be considerably easier.  Once you reach Western Russia,
the Moscow to Thessaloniki drive would be a snip!
 
Or have you considered swimming?  I hear the North Atlantic's lovely this
time of year.....
 
Helpfully yours,
