Owning and maintaining an RV is a hobby in itself. Class C motorhomes are a box truck chock full of appliances and devices that need 120v AC and 12v DC and propane supply to operate and provide you the "comforts of home". Batteries and charging equipment must be monitored and maintained. Most RV's are not well insulated and the windshield and windows allow cold and heat in. Plumbing can freeze in cold weather. You should choose a "rig" with comfortable rear bed room with easy access on both sides. Sleeping in the overhead bunk is for kids without arthritis, etc. Ok for a few nights but not great long term. Not meaning to discourage but to alert you. Good idea to try it all out in a rental before you decide about the life style and what to buy.
