Asp.net vb find XML nodes

i have the below xml and i want to get the phone from each item. I have a loop where i can read the name and surname with success but i'm stacked on the other part.

Which is the xpath i should follow

<items>

<item>
    <name></name>
    <surname></surname>
    <list>
        <phone></phone>
        <email></email>
    </list>
</item>

<item>
    <name></name>
    <surname></surname>
    <list>
        <phone></phone>
        <email></email>
    </list>
</item>

</items>

Thanks
