How does life during retirement look like for a 30 something

I and my husband (age 35, DINKS) have decided to relocate to India after 9 years in the US and retire there. Total corpus - $1.8 M
Plan is to buy a home in tier 2 city ( mostly Chandigarh) for $3 Cr, monthly expense - 2 lakh.

Problem is - I am worried about what I would do with all the free time? I have my sisters family in Chandigarh , the only people I know. Mom would live with us and we will get a dog. But is that it? I have associated my identity with my job. I don’t want to work as I am exhausted. But the idea of not doing anything the whole day scares me.
