Yes, there are some similarities. First, except for a couple of vowels in each language, the Russian phonemes are almost the same we have in Portuguese. Also, we do have something close to "zakanie" and "zikanie" in Brazilian Portuguese (although our zakanie is different: instead of changing "O" for "A", we often change "O" for "U"), not to mention some simple words that sound alike.
As for the culture, except for some minor differences regarding religion and cullinaire (we're not orthodox and everything Russian I ate was very different from what I'm used to), I never noticed anything "different" or "exotic" in Russian culture. Oh, one odd thing: both Brasilia and Moscow are considered the "3rd Rome". Don't ask me how it happened, it just did 
ps.: What is Tarhun made of? I was told it's made of mint but it tastes like lemon jelly
