By default, Vagrant stores its boxes after downloading in the directory defined by VAGRANT_HOME environment variable. As a result, On Mac OS X and Linux: ~/. vagrant.
When you do 'vagrant ssh' you are not in the '/vagrant' directory but in /home/vagrant directory. Now run 'ls /vagrant'. You will see the VagrantFile in the directory. This is the same VagrantFile that is on your actual host machine.
Box File - This is a compressed ( tar , tar. gz , zip ) file that is specific to a single provider and can contain anything. Vagrant core does not ever use the contents of this file. Instead, they are passed to the provider. Therefore, a VirtualBox box file has different contents from a VMware box file and so on.
As mentioned in the docs, boxes are stored at:
~/.vagrant.d/boxes C:/Users/USERNAME/.vagrant.d/boxes
