Many student exchange programs have been offered by university to experience living abroad and be immersed in international linguistic and cultural involvement.  This case study explored one participant’s perception of her in-class and out-at-home learning in two different contexts, in Indonesia and in the U.S., and identified the change of language learning activities that built the learning autonomy.  The research questions were set: 1. How does the participant of international short term exchange program reflect her in-class and out-of-class learning at home and in abroad? 2. How does participant perceive changes in language learning activities in class and outside the class at home and abroad? The research instrument in this study was a semi-structured interview in multiple session and a language learning history journal essay. The interview and journal were later transcribed as verbatim and categorised into two themes: in-class and out-of-class learning autonomy and the shift of learning activities in Indonesia and in the U.S. This case study found that participant was involved in different language learning in-class and out-of-class activities that shifted her learning autonomy in two different learning contexts, in Indonesia and in the U.S.
