The leaves seem to rounded to be a pothos, perhaps a member of the cordylines?
It looks like a tropical rainforest plant as opposed to a woodland or temperate forest
I agree, Pepperomia obtusifolia is most likely, but P. magnolifolia is very similar and quite common in cultivation. I've never been able to distinguish between the two.
This is taken from Floridata: "Early Florida botanists confused this species [obtusifolia] with spatulate peperomia (Peperomia magnoliifolia), which usually grows as an epiphyte high in the branches of live oak trees in upland tropical hardwood forests. (Under a magnifying glass, that species can be distinguished by fruits beaked at the middle, rather than at the ends, and hairless stems at the base of the flower spikes.)"
I guess you have to get it to fruit to tell for sure!
