Why is the trace-route results give you different path and hops when changing 
the DNS server for the same source/destination.

any informative notes


The site to which you are running the traceroute may use a CDN with an IP geolocation mechanism.

So, for example, if you query a DNS server on the US East Coast, you'll likely be routed to a CDN cache server located somewhere in the Eastern US; likewise, if you change the resolver you query to one in Japan, you are probably going to be routed to a CDN cache node either in or geographically close to Japan.
