I worked here in 1968/9 whilst Nabalco was building the mining site,was nothing like it is now,lived in a long hut,worked 6 days a week,had an old FJ Holden,used to fly TAA/Ansett to Sydney,looks so different,used to drive out to the old slipways where the flying boats used to leave.

Thanks for the video I was born there in 1977 and left around 19 years later, haven't been back but definitely on my bucket list. I lived at 20 chesterfield circuit.

Haven't been there in two years and I'm still feeling homesick. Wanna go back but my parents don't. Loved Yirricala beaches.

gotta love yirrkala, been gone for 5 years, still miss it

I'm from Mexico city, the perspective to live in this natural, beautiful and far away place is exciting. You are so far from the bustle of the cities that I imagine they live quietly

We left in '79 when I was young. Hoping to get back there sometime soon and take a look.

Miss that place!!! Loved the video =)

Oh how I miss Gove. Lived there for 11 years and I still feel homesick. Wanna go back aswell but Gove has turned into a bad town since the mining shutdown forcing all the people that worked there to move away with their families. Unlucky my family was one too. #govegirlforever

Miss this place. Miss the nhulumbuy town

Nice town infrastructure way different to the Indonesian towns up north in Guinea.What a change it is with an English background mentality.From Costa Rica

Still remember the old old Ansett days in gove

where you rode near town centre back in the 80`s she full of cars full of people I was at school that was Gove Nhulunbuy

I lived here for eight years and I miss it sooo much!

I was born in Gove in 77 and lived there until 1987 and then moved to Darwin. Haven’t been back since 1991

I live here now

Nice pics.

I used to live there the nicest warm weather and now i live in NSW and it is COLD

Too bloody hot .

Rapih ya... Walu sepi tapi rapih dan terbangun infra struktuk dengan baik... Jauh beda dengan kita di papua..... Sedih memang jauh lebih kaya tapi sangat minim dan miskin sekali.... Korupsi luar biasa dan kkn serta pembodohan sistimatis membuat kami seperti ini... Belum tau kapan kami sepakat untuk memutuskan untuk mau maju... Mungkin 100 atau 200 tahun lagi.... Kalau kemarin sih kita butuh 350 tahun. Untuk memutuskan ya kita mau sedikit maju. Dengan merdeka.

I've been gone 22 years. I was born there and left when i was 18, want to go back and see what's changed. I used to live at 20 Chesterfield circuit.

Hey-for those of you that currently live there...would you recommend it for young kids?! X

I live here
