No, life is not all about work. Vedas has laid out four "Purushartha" for human beings. They are: Artha, Kama, Dharma, and Moksha. A person can earn, following dharma, to make a sustainable life. However, he/she should also remember that Artha is just one aspect of life. In modern societies, people only think about Artha and Kama, so the societies have become very unholy and wicked. If returning to Nepal really helps you with attaining dharma and moksha, by all means aspire for such goals.
