const SOLO_FAQS = [
  { q: "Is solo travel safe for women?", a: "Almost always — but the brief matters. The cities we send first-time solo women to (Lisbon, Copenhagen, Tokyo, Edinburgh, Reykjavik, Taipei) have crime rates lower than most U.S. metros. The cities that need a real safety read (Marrakech, Cairo, Mumbai) we don't shy away from — we just write them with the brief attached. Our solo-female desk is run by women who actually do this, not by an editor pretending." },
  { q: "How much does a solo trip cost vs. a couples trip?", a: "Per person, slightly more on lodging and slightly less on everything else. Single-supplement charges add ~25% to hotel prices in Europe and the U.S.; in Asia and Latin America they barely register. You save on splitting nothing at restaurants, on smaller cabs, on simpler meals. Net-net, a solo week runs about 10% above the per-person cost of the same trip with a partner." },
  { q: "Do I need to book everything in advance?", a: "Book the flight, the first three nights, and one good dinner. Leave the rest. The single biggest gift of solo travel is the ability to change your mind on day three without anyone else's calendar. Over-planning is the most common solo-trip mistake — we wrote a whole essay on it (linked above)." },
  { q: "How do I meet people without it being weird?", a: "Walking tours, hostel bars (even if you're not staying there), language exchanges, and bookable group day-trips. The best move is to put yourself in a structured social setting for ~3 hours a day; the rest of the time, you'll be fine alone, and the people from the morning often turn into dinner plans." },
  { q: "What about eating dinner alone?", a: "Counters. Always counters. Pick restaurants with bar or counter seating; you'll have a better meal and the staff will treat you with the warmth normally reserved for two. The 'eat at the bar' tip is so reliable it's basically the entire solo-dining playbook. We have city-by-city counter-seat shortlists in our food guides." },
  { q: "I'm 50+ and never travelled alone. Where should I go?", a: "Lisbon, Edinburgh, Copenhagen, Tokyo, in roughly that order. All four are extremely safe, walkable, English-friendly without being annoying about it, and full of solo travelers in your age band. The 'Easy mode' shortlist above was assembled with this reader in mind." },

// Practical / "things solo travelers ask"
const SOLO_PRACTICAL = [
  { k: "Lodging tip", h: "Pick the neighborhood, then the room.", b: "Spend 20 minutes on neighborhood research and 5 on the actual hotel. Solo travelers feel the neighborhood far more than couples do — the walk back from dinner matters more than the bedsheets." },
  { k: "Money tip", h: "Two cards, two wallets.", b: "One card on you, one in the hotel safe. A different bank for each. The cost of a stolen wallet ruining a solo trip is too high to skip this." },
  { k: "Phone tip", h: "Local eSIM, day one.", b: "Buy and install before the flight (Airalo, Saily). Going dark on a solo trip is cute for an hour and a problem for the next twelve." },
  { k: "Safety tip", h: "Tell someone the day's plan.", b: "A two-line text to someone at home. Coffee, museum, dinner at X. Takes thirty seconds, makes the next eight hours functionally invisible." },
