A volcano on the Reykjanes Peninsula erupted on Friday after thousands of small earthquakes in recent weeks.
Sigrun Hreinsdottir is from Iceland and has previously studied the area in which the volcano erupted.
Now living in New Zealand, working for GNS, she said after the earthquakes this small eruption is an ideal outcome for the area.
However, it's not ideal for her - she's bubbling with jealousy of her friends and family in Iceland who have hiked up the mountain to see the magma.
