In fact, free time is one of the most desirable goals we can aspire to. While work is seen as a necessary evil, being able to relax, to have nothing to do, seems to most people the royal road to happiness.

Now I understand it, thank you.
I think if the underlined part: "~a necessary evil, being able to relax, to have nothing to do, seems ~", is connected with and, it will be more natural, is it? (~ being able to relax and to have nothing to do, seems~.)
