Been awhile since I made one of these wishlist seasons. Feel free to rate and share thoughts.

Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA (Better to get it out at start and not end), --> Sapporo, Japan
Leg 2: --> Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
Leg 3: --> New Delhi, India (Non Elimination)
Leg 4: Repeat
Leg 5: --> Alexandria, Egypt
Leg 6: --> Hamburg, Germany (Non Elimination)
Leg 7: --> Hanover, Germany (Via Train)
Leg 8: --> Milan, Italy
Leg 9: --> Tunis, Tunisia (Non Elimination)
Leg 10: Repeat
Leg 11: --> Porto, Portugal
Leg 12: --> Baltimore, Maryland

Fyi repeat just means that the leg is in the same leg as the previous one.

Since I am from Serbia and TAR has never been here, I would like them to come to my country. It is a European country situated partly in South-East and partly in Central Europe, and it has very long history and rich culture and tradition with many worldwide known people.

There are also other countries that have not been visited so far, or they should be visited more often. These are Canada, Mexico and all other Latin American countries except Brazil and Argentina, the rest of European countries with 0 visits, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Northern, Eastern and Central European countries, some other African and Middle East ones and the Oceanian countries, except Australia and New Zealand.

So, let's imagine a season like this (I will write countries, not places):

Leg 1: USA-Venezuela
Leg 2: Venezuela-Portugal
Leg 3: Portugal-Serbia
Leg 4: Serbia-Greece
Leg 5: Greece
Leg 6: Greece-Tunisia
Leg 7: Tunisia-Ivory Coast
Leg 8: Ivory Coast-Mongolia
Leg 9: Mongolia-Papua New Guinea
Leg 10: Papua New Guinea-Fiji
Leg 11: Fiji-Canada
Leg 12: Canada-USA

What do you think? :)

Which city or area of Serbia do you imagine would be available to some of the best tasks and potential team drama?

Well, I am not quite sure. Although small, Serbia has many beautiful and interesting areas. There are Vojvodina - the nothern region, which is part of big Pannonian plain, Belgrade, the capital and the largest city here, Central Serbia with Sumadija, where the renewal of our country in the 19th century began, and picturesque Eastern and Western Serbia. My country has very rich history, so there are many cultural and historical monuments, many churches and monasteries. Additionally, there are many natural beauties here, from breath-taking landscapes to rivers, lakes, mountains and national parks. These all attract tourists from around the world.

If TAR comes here, I think it would be nice (for a single leg) for some tasks to be done in Belgrade, and some others to be done in another region, in the vicinity of a river, mountain, lake or a monument. For example, a Roadblock can be done in Belgrade, then the teams should take a bus to another place and there perform a Detour.
I am not very competent for this question, since I am not a production professional, but I am glad you asked this question.

I see you are from Chicago. Maybe you know, that is the city where many Serbians and people with Serbian heritage live. Some estimations says there are over 300 000 Serbian people, which makes it one of the most populated "Serbian" cities, according to some sources, the second largest (after Belgrade) :D.

I didn't know that, but awesome fact! There's a lot of people in Chicago from Eastern-European descent (we have a Greektown in the west of downtown), but I'd say it's majorly a melting pot of various other cultures around the globe. A cluster of Swedish population live north of the city and Italian all over.

Yeah, many Serbian people live abroad, so we have a huge diaspora. Therefore, there are Serbian Orthodox churches in many of the places the Serbian live. I know there are numerous nationalities in the whole USA, not only in Chicago, and there are, probably, people from every single country living in the US. By the way, Greece is in Southern Europe, not Eastern :).

Lisbon, Portugal, is one the list however I don't want to go back to Spain for a little while. I at least want to do 5 seasons before going back to any countries that were visited in seasons 1-3! I do think the next time Portugal is on the list it will be Maderia.
