Cacambo was brought from Cadiz to be Candide's valet. He is honest and speakes many different languages. He even saves Candide from Biglugs, and becomes a valued friend and confidant. Cacambo acts as a guide to Candide. Candide is naive and does not know the ways of the world. He is too trusting of the strangers he meets during his travels. Cacambo serves to provide Candide with the answers and instructions Candide needs to survive the world. After Candide supposedly stabs and kills The Baron, Cacambo helps Candide escape without getting caught (p 401).
