His tweet reads “After coming to Saudi Arabia more than two years ago, I found that I still needed to spend more time to learn Saudi culture. Still learning to wear the bisht.”

The ambassador is seen wearing a bisht, shimag and even an ogal in the photo that accompanied his post.

He seems to travel a lot about the country as well, here he is at the ancient Arabian city of Dummat Al Jandal.
