I have used several methods. Primarily in the cabin I have run wire mount track (intended for training computer cords and whatnot) along the base boards where it will more or less be hidden by the mattress. Drilled thru the back of this out for trailer running lights.
For light switch locations, dome lights (which I mounted on the side walls high up) and the roof fan wires I routed channels in the foam from the base board up prior to laminating my inner wall skins on, then just fished the wires thru. Used a similar technique in the bulkhead to bring wires from the street side baseboard up to the hatch hinge to jumper to the hatch for galley light, lic plate and taillights, as well as feeding the linear actuators.
I decided to add another power circuit to a potential future entertainment center at the top center of the bulkhead, but by this time in my build it would have been really hard to add anymore hidden wires thru the bulkhead, so put a shallow square box in the roof/ceiling, drilled each roof spar and left a channel gap in the first 3/4 inch thk layer of roof foam, which subsequently got bridged over by the second layer of roof foam.
Later in my build I decided that I wanted high clearance lights on the sides, so before skinning the outsides of the side walls I routed channels from the lower running/side marker lights, laid the wires in, cut narrow strips of foam slightly over sized and glued them in over the wires.
All of this (and a whole lot more!) is documented in my build thread.
