Resting from learning a language by learning another?

I love to learn languages, and to learn new things in general. I don't think that you must necessarily aim to for proficiency in order to study a thing or two about a language. So, sometimes when I get tired of studying one of my aim target languages, I take a rest. and I like to use that spare time to learn the basics or to just practicing practice another random language.

I think it's awesome to have at least a little notion knowledge of the a languages. Then you can learn it easily if you want it to some day.

What are your thoughts on it this?
