Just a girl? That's allot. An converter is simply a transformer that takes 120 volts, from shore power, and converts it to 12 volts DC to charge your batteries and run your 12 volt house items. A inverter takes 12 volts from the battery and changes it to 120 volts AC. The problem is it takes allot of juice from your batteries to run the inverter. So, you"ll need extra batteries. The inverter also has a second job of also charging the batteries when plugged into shore power.
