Please, help with my questions.

1) Should I say the earth or land of Mafia (or Mafia's earth/ Mafia's land)?

2) - Maybe I can come back to Colombia next week, but there's a strong possibility that I stay here and marry her. (is there any mistake in this sentence ?).

3) On this vacation I'm staying in her house(or at her house). ?

4) My travel in/to/or for Finland?

5) Thanks for helping me or thanks to help me?

Tks,

Alicia

Hi, nona the brit

Thank you very much for helping me. By the way when do we specifically use land and earth?

only 'land' is used to mean 'country' or 'area where X lives/is found' etc. Earth refers to the whole planet. or, with a small e, the dirt/soil/earth/mud.
