Nepal looks very unlikely right now and has to be getting ruled out. With only one major international airport in Kathmandu, flights are bound to Australia is making two connections with a total of over 20-36 hour flight travel.

Well, TAR13 went to La Paz, Bolivia, that is located at 3.600 meters (11.000 feet) above the level of the sea and they did some physical task - marching with a band, riding a bike, fighting with the "cholitas" in a ring -.

I mean we have couples of high altitude leg before so it would not be a big issue. However I don't think we'll visit Nepal this time simply because we're just have 2 legs left before getting back to US (LA most likely) for final leg and Nepal was not feasible to host as penultimate leg logistic wise. I think the next 2 legs would be somewhere at Southeast/East Aisa or Australia.

Phil mentioned in an interview the number 30, a lovely number.
The Amazing Race is hosted by New Zealander Phil Keoghan.
The average length of each race is approximately 25 to 30 days.
Is there something special planned in New Zealand?

I'm not really aware of any major events coming up but New Zealand does remain a possibility.

I don't really see high hopes for Australia to be visited.. Considering we only have one leg of Asia
