  They say you fall in love with your first smelter and they're probably not wrong. As my coach passed by on the way to the airport I couldn't stop staring out of the window as this beautiful building seemed to continue on forever as we passed by, the darkness of the Icelandic winter highlighting this stark, brutalist structure as a powerful reminder of aluminium and its importance to all our lives.

  I took my fiancé to Iceland because it's such a beautiful place to propose. Anyway was driving in from the airport and saw this smelter and I knew right then and there that this was the moment I had been waiting for. I pulled over and got down on one knee and asked her to marry me. Her heart smelted and she said yes. Such a beautiful place and memory for us. Will be having my wedding pictures taken here for sure.
