Starting line: Solvang, California, USA
Beautiful Danish landscape in the Pacific coast with cozy architecture.
Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia
Tasks will involve with cricket and rugby (both popular Australian sports in which Melbourne is Australia's sporting capital). Pit Stop probably in Federation Square. Australia is really an overdue and was last visited in season 18.

Leg 3: Taipei, Taiwan
Involves making sky lanterns. Pit Stop at Taipei Astronomical Museum.

Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa
More touristy leg including the famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. Pit Stop will most likely at Rhodes Memorial.
Leg 8: Athens, Greece
Making Greek pottery and learning Ancient Greek gods + mythologies. Pit Stop either at the Acropolis or Mount Lycabettus. Another overdue country.
Leg 9: Ljubljana, Slovenia
I would wonder that Slovenia will get its first visit on the franchise. Probably will going to take mountain-related tasks in Triglav and Lake Bled would be cool as the Pit Stop location.
Leg 10: Milan, Italy
The place for fashion and lifestyle, including a medieval tasks in Sforza Castle. A wonderful city that has not visited since TAR 4.
Leg 11: Cali, Colombia
After a huge successful first Colombian visit in Cartagena, this beautiful Colombian city would be more awesome. Cali is known as the Salsa capital of the World would involve popular Salsa dance. A great penultimate South American leg.
Leg 12: Houston, Texas, USA
Houston is a great place to visit and its more people than other Texan cities (Dallas, Austin, Fort Worth and San Antonio). Finish line will be probably at San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site around USS Texas.

My wishlist for Season 29!
Leg 1: Boston, Massachusetts, USA - Dublin, Ireland
Dublin is a fantastic city and Ireland hasn't been visited since Season 12 so is long overdue in my opinion!
Leg 2: Dublin, Ireland - Helsinki, Finland
It's about time for a return to Finland in my opinion!
Leg 3: Helsinki, Finland - Hamburg, Germany
A visit to Hamburg to go Minatur Wunderland and have a roadblock to do with repairing a model train would be really interesting!
Leg 4: Hamburg, Germany - Muscat, Oman
A trip to the Middle East for a difficult self driving leg!
Leg 5: Muscat, Oman to Rangoon, Myanmar
I loved the Top Gear Special and feel it would be a fantastic country for a visit
Leg 6: Rangoon, Myanmar
It deserves a second leg to sort of deal with Rural Myanmar
Leg 7: Rangoon, Myanmar to Queenstown, New Zealand
A winter New Zealand leg is overdue in my opinion and Queenstown is amazing during the Winter!
Leg 8: Queenstown, New Zealand to Auckland, New Zealand to Whangarei, New Zealand
A leg that deals with New Zealand's rich history with the Pit-stop at Waitangi with some self driving
Leg 9: Auckland, New Zealand to La Paz, Bolivia
La Paz deserves a second visit and has more to offer than what was showcased in Season 13!
Leg 10: La Paz, Bolivia to Santa Cruz, Bolivia
A city that is expanding with a mix of modern and historical traditions would make a great visit!
Leg 11: Santa Cruz, Bolivia to San Jose, Costa Rica
A difficult penultimate leg in the heat of the carribean sea and rainforest with adventure and puzzles.
Leg 12: San Jose, Costa Rica to Nashville, Tennessee, USA
A rich city ripe with themes of country music for a final leg!
