Wow! Sounds like fun. And with the extra space in the van, you two (I assume 2) might well have a ball.
Our longest stay in our TM was 6 weeks, and it was getting a little cramped by then. But we were set up for "travelling", not "living", and things are a little different. We also had a dog and cat, and they were getting underfoot. And we didn't have any extra space in the tow vehicle. And I admit it, we are kind of "thing" oriented. With these things changed, it might very well work.
Weather will probably be important. On a couple other trips, we found ourselves in snow country - in one case snowed in for three days. This was less fun. Things got claustrophobic pretty fast, there were plumbing annoyances, condensation and ice loading got to be a problem, and we were burning propane pretty fast to keep warm. My suggestion (for me anyway) would be to avoid this situation.
Where are you going? If you set out with a year in mind, are you then committed to staying a year? Or can you bail out after (say) 8 months if the charm wears off?
