Áslaug Arna Sigurbjörnsdóttir has moved to London and put her luxury apartment at Hafnartorg in central Reykjavík up for rent.

The former minister and current Fenris Creations employee shared photographs of the fifth-floor apartment on Instagram, highlighting its balcony views, open-plan kitchen and furnishings. The home has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Its artwork, displayed throughout the apartment, also features prominently in the images.

“The place I have called home for the past seven years is now available to rent,” Áslaug Arna wrote. She also described the open kitchen as an essential feature of a party apartment in central Reykjavík.

Her move to London follows several changes in her personal and professional life. After beginning studies at Columbia University last year, she returned home in the spring but decided not to take her seat in parliament again. This summer, it was reported that Fenris Creations, formerly CCP Games, had hired her in London to lead a new company project focused on artificial intelligence.
