Muslim faces the direction of Kaaba (located in Mecca city in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) when praying. So, it depends where he is located. if he is located to the east of Kaaba (or Mecca city) he will face the west. If he is located to the west of Kabba (or Mecca city) he will face the east.

See related question on Kaaba for more information.
