Default Re: Canada

I need your help again. As I recently got my host family's phone number I want to call them before I go. I want to sound more natural when talking to the hostess, so I have written a short dialogue and would like you to take a look at it and say what I should change to sound more natural.

-Hello! Can I speak to Ms X, please?
-Hello, Ms X. I'm the student who's coming to you next Sunday.
-I'd like to know if there's anyting special I should take along?
-All right, and what about a plug adopter? Have you got one or should I buy it myself?
-Would you like me to bring you anything from Russia? For example, some sourvenirs or something of the kind?
...
-Thank you very much indeed! That's all I wanted to ask you while I'm Russia. Bye-bye!

Well, the dialogue is very short but like I said that's all I want to ask her while I'm in Russia.
