This article draws on Lefebvre’s production of space to understand the cultural negotiations and underlying meanings of being and becoming an international student. Rich and multiple data sources including video/audio recordings of classroom interactions, field notes, interviews, diaries, and institutional documents from a Vietnamese student’s participation in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) and mainstream courses in a New Zealand university (NZU) were drawn upon. The findings of this study show that the student’s engagement in both the new social space and academic environment of NZU is mediated through negotiations and reflections of her Vietnamese-ness and constant comparison of the host culture with that of Vietnam and how her experience of navigating the social space of New Zealand influences her perceptions of Vietnamese-ness. International students’ socialization is mediated through engagement with materialities of space, mastering the norms of their social space, participating in activities, and reflecting on their own life and learning trajectories
