Several thousand Syrian refugees live in camps in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley.
The first thing you notice when you arrive here is the mud.
The temperature might be close to 30 degrees, but surface water is all over the site because there is no drainage.
It sticks to children's bare feet, it covers the potatoes being prepared for lunch and it creeps into many of the tents.
'Miserable, disgusting situation'
One woman with four children by her side says: "I don't need to tell you what I think of this place.
"Just look around and you can see it is disgusting. We don't know how to clean the tent. I'm fed up of this miserable disgusting situation."
The camp is next to a farm on private land that the United Nations (UN) rented to help refugees find shelter.
There are around 60 tents here with families of up to 20 people living in each one.
'Of course I'm worried'
In the distance, you can see the mountains of the Syrian border just a few miles away.
People here are close to their home country but the civil war there means they can't get any closer.

Dunia is 18 and is here with her sisters, mother, and baby daughter.
"I have been here for two years," she says.
"At my home the warplanes were shelling over us and damaged our house so we had to leave.
"My husband is still there but I haven't heard from him for some time. Of course I'm worried about him."
Across the camp there are many others like Dunia wondering about where their relatives are and how they are doing.
Syria: The story of the conflict
Since the Syrian civil war started in 2011, almost 200,000 Syrians have lost their lives in the conflict between forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and those who are against him being in power.
Around 3.2m people have fled the country during the fighting.

'Nobody knows whether he is still alive'
Waleed, 18, hasn't been in touch with his brother for more than two years
Waleed is also 18. His brother is a soldier in the Syrian army but hasn't made contact for more than two years.
"Some say he is in prison - others say that he has disappeared. Nobody knows whether he is still alive. "
A medical condition means he has to use a wheelchair which makes life even more difficult.
"The situation is much worse than you can even imagine, the water is poisoned. Even the simple things that any human needs are not here.
"I am always angry, always depressed. I feel stressed and out of control because I am living in this camp."
'We cannot stay warm'
At the edge of the camp is a small ditch used to dump food and black bin liners containing sewage. The heat makes the smell difficult to escape.
Conditions may be grim for the adults, but for the dozens of children the camp, it is all they have known. Many of them laugh and smile as they play with broken bits of wood or other junk lying around.
Their parents worry for them though.
Inside one of the tents we visit the bed is made from a piece of plywood propped up on breezeblocks. A dirty red cloth is used for a duvet.
The mother tells us she sleeps in the tiny space with eight of her children.
She says: "Winter is coming and sometimes we can get snow. We cannot stay warm."
