What Happens in Emily in Paris Season 2?

Emily isn't in Paris at the start of Season 2, according to the first teaser trailer. It looks as if the young American marketing professional is taking a vacation in Saint-Tropez.

We see Emily living it up on the French coast in Saint-Tropez, posing by the docks and on the beach. She's also visited by her friends, Mindy and Camille, while vacationing.

The trio spend time rubbing shoulders with the wealthy as they attend a party at a lavish house, complete with a saxophone playing Flyboard rider in the swimming pool.

While the trailer shows Emily in Saint-Tropez, first-look images released by Netflix show that Emily does return to Paris eventually.
