During the height of*NSYNC’s popularity in the late ‘90s and early 2000s,Lance Bassoccasionally needed to get away from it all — so he opted to travel in disguise, even ditching his signature frosted tips.
Those incognito solo trips of his boy-band days remain a pleasant memory for for the father of two, who recently reunited with*NSYNCtoperformtheir new song “Paradise” duringJustin Timberlake’s Los Angeles concert on March 13.
“I went to Cancun just to relax and have a me-time vacation," he recalled. “It’s nice to just chill and let your brain relax and have no responsibility for a couple of days.”

These days, Bass is more focused on making memories with his husband, Michael Turchin, and their2½-year-old twins,son Alexander James and daughter Violet Betty.
“The first couple of years, it was tricky to travel with them because you never know when one’s gonna have a meltdown since you can’t really communicate with them to understand why they’re crying,” he toldT+L. “Now that they’re having full conversations, it’s a lot easier to fly with them. You can distract them easier with games and some snacks. Traveling is just a breeze these days compared to what it was a year ago.”
In aninterview with PEOPLEearlier this month, Bass shared that his family is planning to visit Utah, where the twins will “see snow for the first time and put skis on for the first time.”
“I’m so excited for them to really, hopefully, enjoy all of that, because I didn’t even know how to ski until I was in my 30s,” he added with a laugh. “So I want to give them this gift.”
Bass noted that he and Turchin, 37, also enjoy bringing their toddlers to spend time with other family members.
“We love going to Mississippi and Florida to visit the grandparents,” he said.

The couple, whotied the knot in 2014, hope to journey abroad with the kids in a few years.
“I plan on taking them to different countries, eventually. Not right now, but when they’re old enough to start remembering things, hopefully 4 or 5 years old,” Bass said.

Bass added. “Just something different where they get to choose where we go adventure.”
